[debhelper style] install target
Hello Developers,
dh_make produce a debian/rules that look like this (for a single binary package).
build:
dh_testdir
clean:
dh_testdir
dh_testroot
dh_clean
install: build
dh_testdir
dh_testroot
dh_clean -k
dh_installdirs
binary: build install
dh_testdir
dh_testroot
dh_installdocs
dh_installexamples
dh_installmenu
dh_installcron
dh_installman
dh_installinfo
dh_installchangelogs #CHANGELOGS#
dh_link
dh_strip
dh_compress
dh_fixperms
dh_installdeb
dh_shlibdeps
dh_gencontrol
dh_md5sums
dh_builddeb
As you see, all the dh_install commands are in the binary target, so in fact
'install' do not fully install the package.
I think it is better for 'install' to really install, so that
we can make debian/rules install and look at where the files are put
so I would rather put the dh_installxxx command in the install rules.
What do you think of it ?
Cheers,
(Please CC me!)

Q: Does Debian has LSB support ?
A: Yes! But we also have MSB support.
Debian: when you have better to care about than what CPU is in the box.
