That would avoid the problem that I don't know. Maybe a debian/rules like this would work? #!/usr/bin/make -f ifdef EMDEBIAN include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/emdebhelper.mk else include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/debhelper.mk endif include /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/makefile.mk With emdebhelper.mk TBD. Better alternative: Add useful commands to the debhelper.mk, for the case if EMBEDIAN is defined. > ... (bad design practice to keep copies in sync by hand) Yes. Cheers, WB
