What do you do when you need to install files produced by the build system but not installed. *.install can easily reference source file, or installed files (debian/tmp/*), but this is un-easy to reference file produced by make (before make install). What I did is patch the original build system to install files that were not originally meant to be installed: *.html. They are used as intermediate step to produce qch files. >> The other way around for me would be to explicitely define the build >> directory, > > --builddirectory I'll check but it seems I had to set a clean:: rule to get things working.
