Actually, the recommended way to "copy" files from your upstream
source location to the debian/<package> directory would be to use
dh_install. Even better than calling dh_install directly from rules
would be to use an "install" file in the debian/ directory which has
things of the form

<upstream file/directory> <destination>

I still need help with the "source" package issue, to resolve this problem of a native package.
(As I understand that this is indeed a problem)...

I have done what Kumar proposed - I've put an install file - daloradius-0.9.3/debian/install
which contains: usr usr/
(the contents of the package to be copied is in daloradius-0.9.3/usr)

I have also used the original tarball package and renamed it to daloradius_0.9.3.orig.tar.gz
and put it outside the daloradius-0.9.3/ directory, then while running dpkg-buildpakage inside daloradius-0.9.3 /
I am receiving the following output:

dpkg-source: building daloradius in daloradius_0.9.3.dsc

Which I'm assuming is not a well-done job.
Could someone aid me in completing this package build?

I have put the package file as they are with the .orig and everything I'm using to build
the debian package at: http://daloradius.sourceforge.net/packages/deb/

Thanks,
Liran.
