Does "ls -l debian/rules" work? Are you in the right directory (use "pwd").

No. Every debian source package has a "debian" subdirectory under the
package level. "debian/rules" tries to start the file "rules" in this
directory. (I recommend an introductory Unix book/text for more
elaboration about these things.)

Since it is a makefile, "make" is needed. Do you have this package
installed?
