Packaging TeX Live for Debian is a huge task. Development is done in
a very specific layout and source packages are generated from that.
If you want to know how the *orig.tar.gz* and the *source* packages are
generated, please check out the Debian TeX Live packaging infrastructure at
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/debian-tex/texlive2008/trunk/
where you will find a README file explaining everything in detail. Or get it
at
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/debian-tex/texlive2008/trunk/README
The source packages itself use a mixture of quilt and .diff.gz for the
modifications of the upstream source. If you want to change something it is
best to use the quilt approach as documented in
/usr/share/doc/quilt/README.source
