There is no mipsel cross-compiler packaged for Debian, so building the firmware on arbitrary build machines is not possible. So let packagers build firmware when generating the source package. The built firmware is kept in the debian/ directory and then copied verbatim to <staging directory>/usr/share/xburst-tools at the appropriate time. The commands to prepare the firmware are in a script named debian/autogen.sh, which could be taught to do other things (such as generate a changelog) later.
