You were not installing it in debian/flickrapi

debian/rules (In the install target) add:
$(MAKE) install DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/flickrapi

* And please delete all .ex files that are not used.
* And you also need to add  python2.5-dev, python2.5-xml to
Build-Depends:
* The package should probably be called python2.5-flickr (or
python2.5-libflickrapi) ?
* I'm not sure you need the -dev package. I removed it.

I didn't review the package. The above are only fast notes.
