Public bug reported: I was going through a deb package building tutorial at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhoRyd2CEVs and it used Ubuntu. It mentions a few example rules files under /usr/share/doc/debhelper/examples: rules.multi, rules.multi2, rules.arch and rules.indep. I noticed that the current Ubuntu debhelper package only has rules.tiny under this directory.
I search through apt-file and tried to locate such examples in many other packages but I was unsuccessful. I browsed through the changelog of debhelper to see if there was any notice of removal of these files but also could not find it. I was able to find the files in the internet here: http://www.fifi.org/doc/debhelper/examples/ Thus I think that the non-inclusion of these files might be a bug.
