Thanks.  Roman Hodek gave me the sam hint and it is done.

Another question is:  WHat could be the reason if dh_compress refuses
to compress files un /ust/doc/<package> (No I don't mean the copyright
file!).  I could do this by hand after or instead of calling dh_compress
but I think this is not the intention of the deb_helper utilities.

Kind regards

            Andreas.
