Bug Description
update-maintainer is fussy about only being run in the package's root:
~/nginx-
No control file found in ./debian.
The -d option provides a way to work around this, but is a tad awkward:
~/nginx-
The Maintainer email is set to an ubuntu.com address. Doing nothing.
Packagers often work from in the debian/ dir itself so it would be convenient to scan up the directory tree (perhaps a few levels?)
