No. > If not, how am I supposed to do it? If only the binary-indep or binary-arch targets are built, then you have different files in debian/tmp (the frst package). Have a look at the debhelper example files. They have a build target (as before) and install target where the files are installed and move to other temp directories. The both binary targets then depend on build and install.
