Thanks Charles and Paul for the answers. I could not use the wildcards bin/*/* usr/bin because the tarball contains binary blobs of the same filename. I want the correct file to be installed depending on whether an i386 or amd64 package is being built.
I am checking out the dh-exec solution you suggested but I could not figure out which file to put it in. Also debian/install? I just installed dh-exec and if it works, I will put it in build-depends.
