Title:
  Probem in Packaging New Software Article

Status in Ubuntu Packaging Guide:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I am attempting to get through the "packaging new software" section
  (http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/packaging-new-
  software.html) of ubuntu's packaging guide. I have hit a roadblock and
  am hoping that somebody can point me in the right direction.

  When I get to the point were it asks me to insert the code:

  [CODE]$ bzr builddeb -- -us -uc[/CODE]

  I get this message in the terminal:

  [CODE]
  make[1]: Entering directory `/home/morgan/build-area/hello-2.9'
  There seems to be no Makefile in this directory.
  You must run ./configure before running 'make'.
  make[1]: *** [abort-due-to-no-makefile] Error 1
  make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/morgan/build-area/hello-2.9'
  dh_auto_clean: make -j1 distclean returned exit code 2
  make: *** [clean] Error 2
  dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules clean gave error exit status 2
  debuild: fatal error at line 1361:
  dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -D -us -uc failed
  bzr: ERROR: The build failed.
  morgan@morgans-laptop:~/hello/debian$ 
  [/CODE]

  I am assuming that this means I am missing a makefile so it is not
  able to get past that. I just dont understand why I am missing a
  makefile or where to get it.

  To get to this point I have followed the "GETTING SET UP" article
  (http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/getting-set-up.html) and
  the "PACKAGING NEW SOFTWARE" article
  (http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/packaging-new-
  software.html) point by point.
