As someone who had recently learnt packaging myself, it would be well
worth you taking a look at the following page [1].

In particular the New Maintainers Guide is very useful, as is Lucas'
Packaging Tutorial.

Moving on from them you'll want to get a basic understanding of the
Debian Policy [2].

Also if you want information on what the particular Debhelper commands
do... Best bet is to look at there repsective manpages.

Hope that is of some help to you.

Regards

Daniel
