Everything needed to create debian packages and all existing documentation
on the package system is packaged and in the archive:
apt-get install task-debian-devel maint-guide debian-guide debian-policy \
doc-debian packaging-manual
man dpkg
man dselect
man apt
more /usr/share/doc/*
If you want to really dig in, install the sources and read them.

Everything you need to create it is available from the archive.
