Package: debian-policy
Version: 3.2.1.0
Severity: normal

Chapter `Files', section `Binaries', the paragraphs on DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS:

Adding `-s' to the general INSTALL command is bad, since it will give
an error when applied to non-binaries.  (INSTALL_DATA is of course by
default formed from ${INSTALL}.)  Better is to apply -s to
INSTALL_PROGRAM directly.  I.e. replace each occurrence of `INSTALL' in
this section with `INSTALL_PROGRAM'.
