My guess is that your rules file has: export DH_COMPAT=2
in it. See debhelper(1). If DH_COMPAT is 1, then debian/tmp is used. If DH_COMPAT is 2, then debian/<name of the first package in debian/control> is used. I guess your control file has a single package, bsf? You can either change your code to use a target directory of debian/bsf/usr/share/java, or use DH_COMPAT=1, or do something a bit more complicated like: # This is the debhelper compatability version to use. export DH_COMPAT=2 firstdir := $(shell sed -n 's/Package: \(.*\)/\1/p' debian/control | head -1) and then use a target of debian/$(firstdir)/usr/share/java YA > From: Aaron Brashears <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Fri, 27 Oct 2000 21:08:41 -0700 > To: Debian Mentors <[email protected]> > Subject: buildpackage doesn't put compiled files into .deb > Resent-From: [email protected] > > Hi there.
