Thanks for advice and link it can really save frustration.

I have one other question about debian/rules

original variable PREFIX in makefile is PREFIX = /usr/local

I shouldn't edit makefile itself so I should to do it in debian/rules file.
The result should looks like this?

build-stamp: configure-stamp 
	dh_testdir

	# Add here commands to compile the package.
	$(MAKE) -C source/ PREFIX=/usr
	#docbook-to-man debian/jkmeter.sgml > jkmeter.1

	touch $@

clean:
	dh_testdir
	dh_testroot
	rm -f build-stamp configure-stamp

	# Add here commands to clean up after the build process.
	-$(MAKE) -C source/ PREFIX=/usr clean

	dh_clean 

install: build
	dh_testdir
	dh_testroot
	dh_clean -k 
	dh_installdirs

	# Add here commands to install the package into debian/jkmeter.
	$(MAKE) -C source/ PREFIX=/usr DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/jkmeter install

Makefile is also nested in "source" subdirectory ... thats why " - C source/ "

Thanks for help
