 To build packages in Debian/Ubunto, have a look in section 5.4 of:
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-faq/ch-software.en.html

 Theese might also help:
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/build.en.html

///

So the workflow is something like

 As root:
# apt-get build-dep foo
# apt-get install fakeroot

 as ordinary user
$ apt-get source foo
$ cd foo-*/
$ fakeroot debian/rules binary

apt-get source will get the orig. source, a patch file, a .dsc file,
 and create a working directory for the package from the above 3 files.
debian/rules is a makefile
fakeroot is to "pretend" you are root
