The problem was a ridiculously simple error. dpkg --build builds
the package in the directory named in the second argument. If no
second argument is given, it builds it in debian/. In all of my
rules files (derived from manoj's sample rules files) the second
argument is `..'. In copying, cutting and pasting to make this new
rules file, I lost the `..'arguments. While visually checking this
file, I overlooked the missing `..'.
Thanks for your response.
