Clearly the second one is by far the most flexible. The d/rules is BTW
really nice and clean.

Watch out that:

[...]
dh_install --sourcedir=debian/tmp_trilinos-dev -ptrilinos-dev
--autodest usr/include usr/lib/cmake -V foo=bar
[...]

may only install *.cmake inside a single package. Thus you'll end up
with a somewhat monolithic install (a central *.cmake file will
contains informations for all the other).
