It is. But many users miss it and then the package FTBFS because of the non-existing target directory. However, install is only useful, if you have to rename the source or if you have to set special permissions, not handled by dh_fixperms. I often miss the possibility to use this dehelper script with: dh_fixperms $target $permissions IMHO this would reduce the necessity to use chmod or install in debian/rules.
