Usually dh_auto_install calls the install target of the provided
upstream build system.  This obviously does nothing since the package
remains empty.  So you need to use

    dh_install

The best way to use it is via a debian/install file which contains
line entries

  source   target

The source files in your build tree will be installed to the target
directory.  Just imagine that a "cp " will be prepended.  See also
`man dh_install`.

Hope this clarifies things - if not feel free to keep on asking

      Andreas.
