For sure. I do not have a "best practices" example, but the last
package I uploaded (yesterday) was mrbayes where the packaging is
available at
svn://svn.debian.org/svn/debian-med/trunk/packages/mrbayes/trunk/
It has a short debian/rules file and is using two override_* targets
which should make things more clear. You will find a lot more examples
under
svn://svn.debian.org/svn/debian-med/trunk/packages
If I'm seeking for examples I'm just doing things like:
find packages -name rules -exec grep -wH "dh" \{\} \; | grep trunk
and get a lot of Debian Med packages which are using dh.
Feel free to ask further questions if something remains unclear.
Kind regards
Andreas.
