Package: debhelper
Version: 9.20120419
Severity: minor

In the dh_install man page, the only mention of the fact that the
trailing "destdir" argument in .install files is optional is under the
--autodest option. However, the destdir argument seems to be optional in
all cases, and will automatically get installed to the dirname of the
filename if not specified. This fact should be documented.
