Oke, I was reffering to this page : https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMentorsFaq#What.27s_wrong_with_upstream_shipping_a_debian.2F_directory.3F
If I can use the debian directory which the Linux mint people have made, porting Cinnamon to Debian is easy. I only have to change the copyright and make a watch file.
For learning to be a good maintainer and understanding what Im doing this does not like the right way.
That's why I asked how to do some things on the dh7 way instead of the cbds way.
