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. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-2-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages debhelper depends on: ii binutils 2.19.91.20091006-1 The GNU assembler, linker and bina ii dpkg-dev 1.15.4 Debian package development tools ii file 5.03-2 Determines file type using "magic" ii html2text 1.3.2a-14 advanced HTML to text converter ii man-db 2.5.6-3 on-line manual pager ii perl 5.10.1-5 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii perl-base 5.10.1-5 minimal Perl system ii po-debconf 1.0.16 tool for managing templates file t debhelper recommends no packages.
