Make sure to install the build-essential package plus all the build dependencies listed in the .dsc file (Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 6.0.7~), po-debconf, groff-base), then execute the command dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc inside the source tree you extracted earlier using dpkg-source -x. If you want to learn more about package building you can refer to https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/build.en.html. Cheers Yann
