I want dh_install to install according following globbing:
src/doc/*[a-z].html /usr/share/doc/runit/html
(There is also html pages in form foo.1.html, which duplicate man
pages. I do not want to install them.)
But it does not work -- nothing is installed. dh_install(1) does not
specify glob rules, but plain star (src/doc/*.html) works.
The rules are documented in debhelper(1) manpage: “you can use standard
shell wildcard characters (? and * and [..] character classes) in the
[config] files”.
Even if [] wasn't supported, in compat >=5 dh_install is supposed to
fail if wildcard expands to nothing.
Can you show us the source package, so that we can see what's going on?
