See the description of #3994 for a first set of issues
(co-installability, need for dedicated profiles and specific extension
management):
<https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/3994>
Once those problems are solved, the specifics of Debian packaging
becomes pretty trivial.
Some of the work required might have already been done by Jamie Nguyen
for the Fedora package. See
<https://jamielinux.com/articles/2013/01/tor-and-tor-browser-repository-on-fedora/>
and
<http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/jamielinux/tor/fedora-18/SRPMS/tor-browser-17.0.3-1.fc18.src.rpm>
