I havn't checked phpmyadmin, but it seems you can simplify your rules
file drastically by using the short dh notation since there are no
special things in it for the moment. If you have no idea what I mean
have a look here:
http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/debian-med/trunk/package_template/rules?view=markup
or in any recent of the various Debian Med packages.

Yes, I'd recommend to even purge them from the source package since we
have to repack the openemr source anyway. Purging files from upstream
source became quite simple recently since you only need to mention the
files / directories by simply mentioning them in debian/copyright as
Files-Excluded. Please make sure you are using uscan from devscripts
version 2.14.4 since this functionality is not in uscan of Debian stable
and I have no idea about Ubuntu.

It would be *really* a good idea to use Debian packaged versions.

Thanks for your work on this
Andreas.
