Andres,
What you have done are the correct steps and you can keep going. The
"test_deubg.vhd" is a component generated by the linker to interconnect
the signals that you want to debug. There is no need to access to this
component (you can look at the respective .edi file generated).
Therefore, once you import the top level file to your project, this
component will be imported as well (ignore the red question mark) and
you will be able to generate the respective bitstream to start the
debug session (ispTRACY Logic Analyzer).
