Yes, that's what dh_make automatically generates.

I don't use that and I also have no install files, probably because I chose
to build a single binary package. Do I have to split xmds into four
packages? It seems xmds always needs the one library and two header files,
otherwise it can not compile anything. I don't think this has to be split
into a separate package. But maybe we should move some files to a
subdirectory?
But back to the make install problem, I tried again with cdbs (autocreated
by dh_make) and added the configure options. Still all files are installed
in the root directory, /usr in this case:
*** Contents:

-rw-r--r-- root/root 4928 2006-11-23 21:53 ./usr/xmdsconfig.h
I still believe this is a problem in the configure script, and not in
debian/rules. Once I figure out how to commit this to alioth, you can have a
look for yourself.
