Package: debhelper
Version: 5.0.25
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
consider a big source package building two binary packages, b1 and b2.
Upstream Makefile installs everything to debian/b1, and the maintainer
wishes to move a small number of files from b1 to b2.
Currently, she can either use the deprecated dh_movefiles with the
--sourcefile option, or use dh_install with explicit rm afterwards, or
have upstream install to debian/tmp and use dh_install to move all
files to b1 and b2 (which needs all files in b1 listed in b1.install).
Please consider implementing a per-file --move option for dh_install,
or a new dh_move script which uses package.move as input file with
semantics similiar to dh_install.
Greetings
Marc

Hi,
I am closing this bug as I believe it is implemented via debhelper
compat 9's executable config files along with dh-exec's install-rename
feature. At least, I seem to remember a remarkably similar use-case was
documented in dh-exec's README.
Thanks,
~Niels
