Package: debhelper
Version: 7.4.3
Severity: normal


Before, it use to be that dh_install wouldn't automatically assume that all
files are installed from debian/tmp. Now when installing files that don't get
placed in debian/tmp, like say a file foo in the top source directory, you have
to do something like

$ dh_install ../../foo

Setting --sourcedir=. or --sourcedir=$(CURDIR) doesn't help. It still attempts
to install files from debian/tmp.

Either the assumption that files are installed from debian/tmp needs to be taken
out, two attempts to copy from debian/tmp or $(CURDIR) needs to be done, or
setting --sourcedir=. or --sourcedir=$(CURDIR) needs to actually work.
