For what it is worth, I also mention the generated file in debian/clean. Another thing that the code I am packaging does is to dynamically look up version information in its documentation script: from pkg_resources import get_distribution release = get_distribution('moin').version I have found that this doesn't tend to work when building the package, so I have a patch that manually defines this information instead. Maybe there is a better way of dealing with this, too. Paul
