Package: debhelper Version: 10.10.8 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
as briefly mentioned in IRC, switching to compat level 11 broke the
build some private packages. Basically, the build rules there install
files directly into debian/<package>/path/to/file, no debian/tmp is
created at all, and then dh_missing fails with
| dh_missing: Cannot check if installation is missing files: debian/tmp does
not exist
Up to compat level 10, this triggered a warning only, however the change
was done by intention in

Use the attached tarball to test.
A workaround is to create debian/tmp/ manually - but that's rather
hackish. You're free to call my packaging abuse of debhelper as well.
Cheers,
Christoph
