Thanks Sven, it worked!

At first I created:

debian/install.i386
debian/install.amd64

Unfortunately that didn't work. But when I used:

debian/packagename.install.i386
debian/packagename.install.amd64

Then it worked. This surprised me because the manpage says:

"Note for the first (or only) binary package listed in debian/control,
debhelper will use debian/foo when there's no debian/package.foo file."

The package has only one binary package listed in debian/control, so
the first thing I did should have worked. Could this be a bug in
dh-install, or is this the expected behavior?
