Some problems with debian/rules file...

[Jeremy Higgs <jhiggs@iprsystems.com>]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to make a package for RCF (a firewall) that will be used, 
via a Makefil, to compile the current CVS version of RCF...

It seems to be working ok, but a part of the 'install' target in the 
debian/rules file seems to be skipped when I run 
'dpkg-buildpackage'...:

jem@piglet:~/cvs/rcf-5.2.1$ dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b
dpkg-buildpackage: source package is rcf
dpkg-buildpackage: source version is 5.2.1-1
dpkg-buildpackage: source maintainer is Jeremy Higgs <jhiggs@iprsystems.com>
dpkg-buildpackage: host architecture is i386
 fakeroot debian/rules clean
dh_testdir
dh_testroot
dh_clean
 debian/rules build
# Nothing to do
 fakeroot debian/rules binary
dh_testdir
dh_testroot
dh_clean -k
dh_installdirs
# Create config file
install --mode=700 /dev/null debian/rcf/etc/firewall.conf
# Install functions
install --mode=700 -d debian/rcf/etc/firewall/functions
tar --exclude=CVS -cf - etc/firewall/functions | tar xf - -C debian/rcf
# Install groups
install --mode=700 -d debian/rcf/etc/firewall/groups
tar --exclude=CVS -cf - etc/firewall/groups | tar xf - -C debian/rcf
# Install modules
dh_testdir
dh_testroot

This is the relevant part from the debian/rules file:

install:

        dh_testdir
        dh_testroot
        dh_clean -k
        dh_installdirs

        # Create config file
        install --mode=700 /dev/null debian/rcf/etc/firewall.conf

        # Install functions
        install --mode=700 -d debian/rcf/etc/firewall/functions
        tar --exclude=CVS -cf - etc/firewall/functions | tar xf - -C debian/rcf

        # Install groups
        install --mode=700 -d debian/rcf/etc/firewall/groups
        tar --exclude=CVS -cf - etc/firewall/groups | tar xf - -C debian/rcf

        # Install modules
        install --mode=700 -d debian/rcf/etc/firewall/modules
        tar --exclude=CVS -cf - etc/firewall/modules | tar xf - -C debian/rcf

        # Install firewall script
        install -c --mode=755 fwinit debian/rcf.firewall

        # Create links
        $(MAKE) --directory=debian/rcf --makefile=../../Makefile link

binary-indep: install

        dh_testdir
        dh_testroot

---

As you might be able to see, the commands below the "# Install 
modules" comment are ignored, and dpkg-buildpackage moves onto the 
'binary-indep' target...

Would anyone be able to explain why, and how I would go about fixing it?

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Thankyou!
