Package: dh-exec
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
Please consider adding and equivalent to "install-rename" for
renaming files to the dh_installman / .manpages
I tried hacking src/dh-exec-install.c to allow it to be used on .manpages
(in addition to .install), but unfortunately the output it generates
are not compatible with dh_installman because of destdir....
This patch should make the output compatible with dh_installman but that
would then kill the moving support for dh_install....
(I'm not suggesting you actually use this. Please consider if
it would be possible to send additional information to determine
in dh-exec-install-rename if we should generate dh_install or dh_installman
compatible output -- or if a dedicated manpages helper should be added
basically duplicating most of lib/dh-exec-install-rename.)
