Having looked a bit more at the packaging involved, perhaps you can solve this by replacing all the dh_install -p$(X) [...] calls by moving the content into debian/X.install. In compat 13, you can do substitutions in debian/X.install now without relying on dh-exec. This should enable dh_install to record what would have been installed more reliably and maybe resolve the dh_missing issue you are seeing. Thanks, ~Niels
