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
