Package: debhelper Severity: minor (Credit to "zwol" who mentioned this issue on IRC)
Some upstreams install "usr/share/info/dir", which Debian deliberately ignores because 1) it needs to be regenerated on the target system and 2) it would cause file conflicts. However, we can end up in a situation where dh_missing complains about even though dh_installinfo has been run: """ dh_missing: warning: usr/share/info/dir exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to anywhere dh_missing: error: missing files, aborting """ In this case, we can trivially abuse dh_installinfo to tag usr/share/info/dir as "handled" to avoid errors and avoid people having to think about it. Thanks, ~Niels
