The sources and the build system to build them. Binaries should never be
shipped in the sources.

I have no idea what does debmake do when you already have some files in
debian/. The doc you are reading certainly doesn't expect that.

You don't need to "pack the deb directly", you already have your deb from
checkinstall. On the other hand, if you want a proper package acceptable
in Debian, you shouldn't "pack the deb directly" but write a proper source
package.
