Hi, I am in the process packaging Net::Frame::Device (libnet-frame-device-perl) as part of a the fix to a bug. Net::Frame::Device includes two scripts that are installed to /usr/bin, but both have .pl extensions therefore giving me a Lintian warning. My initial thought on fixing this is to rename the files by overriding dh_auto_install in debian/rules... but I'm struggling to find out how to do this without explicitly writing the file names, which wouldn't accommodate new files in future releases. So far I've got the following: PACKAGE = $(shell dh_listpackages) TMP = $(CURDIR)/debian/$(PACKAGE) <SNIP> find $(TMP)/usr/bin -name '*.pl' Which does identify the files correctly... I'm just not sure where to go from here! My second thought.. was to relocate the files to e.g /usr/share/$(PACKAGE) and then provide symlinks in /usr/bin, but this perhaps seems to more work than necessary Cheers, Daniel Lintott
