Severity: normal
Hello.
The following shell script reproduces the issue.
Instead of copying doc{1,2}.txt into usr/share/doc/bar/ (directory),
debputy copies doc2.txt into usr/share/doc/bar (file).
#!/bin/sh
set -Cefu
mkdir -p tmpdir/foo/debian/source
cd tmpdir
echo '3.0 (native)' > foo/debian/source/format
echo doc1 > foo/doc1.txt
echo doc2 > foo/doc2.txt
cat > foo/debian/changelog <<EOF
foo (0) UNRELEASED; urgency=medium
* Test.
