OK, i missed that point.

That's what i was doing, but i didn't see anything related to debian
files.

I don't have any packaging experience, neither on darwin neither on
debian so please forgive me if i ask stupid questions.

I'm working on the pike language <http://pike.roxen.com/>

I'm looking for splitting the package into several one like on debian ie
the debian/pike7.2-mysql.files contains the names of the files to be put
in the package pike7.2-mysql, since the mysql pike module can't be made
without making pike (but pike can be made without its mysql module).
This way pike core is separated from pike modules, and it is good
because each module requires lots of dependencies.

I don't find something related on the packaging manual, nor in the
packages.

Is that what we call a metapackage? Is there a way to do this?
