I have a native package source from which I build multiple binary packages. The
files are organized as they would be on the target system with their full
destination path. As an example, the souirce directory contains:
./usr/share/applications/foo.desktop
Now I want to make sure that all files become part of a package and I don't
miss to ship any source files. I have multiple .install files in debian/ for
each package. There isn't any Makefile involved, nor do I install all files
into a temporary location first. I just want to make sure that all files,
except for the debian/ directory, are part of a package.
If I run:
dh_missing -XREADME.md -Xdebian/ --fail-missing
I don't get any error, even if I missed a file. This can be easily verified by
just removing one of the -X switches. It should throw an error then, but it
doesn't. But if I add the source directory like:
dh_missing -XREADME.md -Xdebian/ --sourcedir=$(CURDIR) --fail-missing
I get an error for all files, even if they are part of a package. The weird
part is that debhelper then says:
As an example, you might want to replace:
* usr/share/applications/foo.desktop
with:
* usr/share/applications/foo.desktop
Note that both paths are the same. Also, there is a .install file installing
usr/share/applications/foo.desktop.
This might be a cornercase, but I find it quite weird that it isn't working and
I could really use this. Is that a bug or a feature request?
Regards, Daniel
