Package: debhelper
Version: 7.3.12
Severity: normal
/usr/share/perl5/Debian/Debhelper/Buildsystem/autoconf.pm sets
libexecdir to $prefix/lib/$sourcepackage. This is unhelpful - Autoconf's
default for libexecdir is $prefix/libexec (which should obviously be
$prefix/lib instead on Debian), and in Automake you're supposed to use
pkglibexecdir if you want a package-specific subdirectory.
The effect of defining libexecdir this way is that, after conversion to
dh_auto_configure, man-db installs a couple of files into
/usr/lib/man-db/man-db/ rather than just /usr/lib/man-db/ as it's
supposed to.
Could you please pass just --libexecdir=\${prefix}/lib instead?
Thanks,
