Yeah, but:
@set -ex; \
cd debian/tmp; \
find . -path "./DEBIAN" -prune -o -type f -printf '%P\0' \
| xargs -r0 md5sum > DEBIAN/md5sums
(from debian-policy's rules file). dh_md5sums isn't particularly
complicated, although admittedly it deals with a few more cases for you,
such as multiple packages.
