I have been reading all this but I must say it does not help a
beginner in any way. I think some best-practices examples would be
most useful. To just copy/paste and adapt. Saying "look into rules
files" also does not help me much, which one? Which one is similar to
my package? I do not know that. Probably maintainers of many packages
know which one from the past is similar to the new one and can reuse
that, but for me this is hard to know.

So some more direct instructions would be better. I do not mind
reading, but I do not have any feeling what all those magical dh_*
commands do. ;-)
