I'm enjoying my serendipity through this thread, and I tried to give 
dh-make a go.  No can grok.

I tried to make a latest nginx package, and when I then listed the 
contents of the .deb it came up as only having the 
/usr/share/doc/nginx/* stuff - copyright, readme etc.

Is there a place where I list the files to include?  Or is it meant to 
do checkinstall-like magic, and find the installed files itself?

I feel this should be obvious to me, but I seemed to have missed it.
