On second thoughts, I realise you are correct here. DEP-5 spec says; ...
"Both [wildcards] match slashes (/) and leading dots, unlike shell globs. The pattern *.in therefore matches any file whose name ends in .in anywhere in the source tree, not just at the top level." See also https://bugs.debian.org/1086136 With your example file Files: a/*.c would work with lrc as it stands. But if there are multiple asterisks in the Files: field lrc currently reverts to a shell glob. Are you having issues with a particular package that I could look at? Regards, Peter
