[Q:] Which tool creates the DEBIAN subdirectory

[Rainer Dorsch <rdorsch@web.de>]

Hello,

I tried to package cpuinfo but it seems that the files in debian/tmp did not 
make it into the .deb file:

silverboxy:/home/rd/SW.nobackup/cpuinfo# dpkg -L cpuinfo
/.
/usr
/usr/share
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/cpuinfo
/usr/share/doc/cpuinfo/README
/usr/share/doc/cpuinfo/TODO
/usr/share/doc/cpuinfo/README.Debian
/usr/share/doc/cpuinfo/copyright
/usr/share/doc/cpuinfo/changelog.gz
/usr/share/doc/cpuinfo/NEWS.gz
/usr/share/doc/cpuinfo/changelog.Debian.gz

silverboxy:/home/rd/SW.nobackup/cpuinfo# 

My debian/rules file looks like this:

[...]
binary-arch: build
        dh_testdir
        dh_testroot
        dh_clean -k
        install -d debian/tmp/etc/kde3
        make install DESTDIR=`pwd`/debian/tmp
        perl -w debian/debianrules cleanup
        dh_install --list-missing
        dh_installdocs
        dh_installmenu
        dh_installmime
        dh_installchangelogs ChangeLog
        dh_strip
        dh_perl
        dh_compress
        dh_fixperms
        dh_installdeb
        dh_shlibdeps
        dh_gencontrol
        dh_md5sums
        dh_builddeb


My debian/tmp does not contain a DEBIAN directory. Is that the problem? If 
yes, which tool is supposed to create it?
