Re: how to dh_install exclude filename ?
Hello,
many thanks for the suggestions.
Faw helped me to figure out what was wrong.
The (previously) undocumented trick (not at manpages) is that when using
--exclude argument, one MUST completely and explicitly list files to be
installed, and where to.
One must not use dh_install --autodest and or default behaviour.
The intended debian/rules file was even more tricky, as variables could
not be used in manifest files.
In such situation, the debian/rules must contain the rule invocation
with inline variables.
I updated the PkgSplit [0] with more details and explanations, for those
interested.
Regards.
