This file gives the copyright information for both the upstream source and the packaging. Ubuntu and `Debian Policy (Section 12.5) <policy-copyright_>`_ require that each package installs a verbatim copy of its copyright and license information to ``/usr/share/doc/$(package_name)/copyright``.

Generally, copyright information is found in the ``COPYING`` file in the program's source directory. This file should include such information as the names of the author and the packager, the URL from which the source came, a Copyright line with the year and copyright holder, and the text of the copyright itself. An example template would be::

The last file we need to look at is ``rules``. This does all the work for creating our package. It is a Makefile with targets to compile and install the application, then create the ``.deb`` file from the installed files. It also has a target to clean up all the build files so you end up with just a source package again.

Here is a simplified version of the rules file created by ``dh_make`` (which can be found in the ``dh-make`` package):

Let us go through this file in some detail. What this does is pass every build target that ``debian/rules`` is called with as an argument to ``/usr/bin/dh``, which itself will call all the necessary ``dh_*`` commands.

``dh`` runs a sequence of debhelper commands. The supported sequences correspond to the targets of a ``debian/rules`` file: "build", "clean", "install", "binary-arch", "binary-indep", and "binary". In order to see what commands are run in each target, run::

Commands in the binary-indep sequence are passed the "-i" option to ensure they only work on binary independent packages, and commands in the binary-arch sequences are passed the "-a" option to ensure they only work on architecture dependent packages.
