You should start with rebuilding the package that is in the archive -
that obviously works for me and the buildds ;-)
This should help to separate errors on your side (please take no offense
here, the documentation for working with these packages is likely bad,
incomplete and outdated (patches welcome!), so its unfortunately hard
for outsiders to get the workflow running) from problems caused by
possible upstream layout changes ...
Which packaging code did you base your work on? Branch 530 in git? (I
hope I pushed that after uploading the beta packages.)
I only build these packages with gbp (git-buildpackage) backed by
pbuilder, but sbuild should work as well. I never used debuild (or
dpkg-buildpackage) directly on them.
Just tried in a chroot with build-essential and devscripts installed:
# apt-get build-dep nvidia-graphics-drivers
# su -s /bin/bash - nobody
$ cd /tmp
$ apt-get source nvidia-graphics-drivers
$ cd nvidia-graphics-drivers-530.30.02/
$ dch foo
$ debuild
and I got ../nvidia-graphics-drivers_530.30.02-1.1_amd64.changes
