Hello,

one of the *changes* in v11 mode is the following:
| The helpers dh_installdocs, dh_installexamples, dh_installinfo, and
| dh_installman now error out if their config has a pattern that does
| not match anything or reference a path that does not exist.

However I see this behavior for dh_installdocs in v10 mode, too:
-------------
(sid)ametzler@argenau:/tmp/GNUTLS/gnutls-3.6.8$ cat debian/compat
10
(sid)ametzler@argenau:/tmp/GNUTLS/gnutls-3.6.8$ cat debian/gnutls-doc.docs
doc/gnutls.pdf
(sid)ametzler@argenau:/tmp/GNUTLS/gnutls-3.6.8$ dh_installdocs 
-O--builddirectory=b4deb --no-act --verbose -pgnutls-doc ; echo $?
dh_installdocs: Cannot find (any matches for) "doc/gnutls.pdf" (tried in .)

I cannot say when this bug was introduced, it might be long-standing.
