As far as the description, I have that. but It seems I have it wrong. it populates the incorrect field when you install. I just need to look at someone else's files to get the right text, I've based mine off of the py2deb examples.

Also for the past 8 releases, I've been constantly editing the changeloginformation with each release but I never see it in control file
the description in the source of 0.9-1 is all on one line, so that must have gone wrong. you can edit the control file directly, the lines after the first description line need a space in the beginning, like my example.

I usually do
dch -i
to increment version and add changelog entry. And that does not and should not do anything to the control file. Only changelog.

to create the files for extras i do a
dpkg-buildpackage -sn -S

(I don't know how you build your packages, just thought I'd mention how I do mine, in case it helps)
