Anyway, my worry about the refcounting approach (or perhaps M-A: same in

Hi,
the commit d7c001aa6b3d49f1542df05cde60406be2e981ec did not work out as
expected.
Stop using brace expansion to install man pages
The reason for using brace expansion in the first place was due to
debhelper starting to abort on empty glob expansion, needed because

It's specific enough to avoid wrong guesses and it seems to make sense
when you want to use dh_installman to install manual

Russ Allbery writes (Re: Multiarch file overlap summary and proposal):
I definitely agree on the complexity this adds. But I don't think there's
an alternative to that complexity without using something like --sysroot
or mini-chroots, and I don't think those are satisfying solutions to the
