I am trying to build a deb package from source code. when I run:
debuild -b -uc -us
From the source code directory I get:
debuild: fatal error at line 679:
cannot find readable debian/changelog anywhere!
Are you in the source code tree?
Also there is this:
trey@focal:~/freac-1.1.3$ dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b -uc -us
dpkg-buildpackage: error: cannot open file debian/changelog: No such file or directory
I do not understand what is happening.

cannot find readable debian/changelog anywhere!
Are you in the source code tree?
