Package: debhelper Version: 5.0.42 Severity: normal At the moment dh_install --list-missing complains about any file in debian/tmp not listed in the install file. This includes manpages, even if they are listed in their own manpages file to be installed by dh_installman.
It would be more consistent (and less annoying - having to add --exclude=usr/share/man is annoying) if dh_install checked the manpages file before complaining that the man pages are not installed. Possibly combined with a check in debian/rules that dh_installman is in fact invoked? The same principle might apply to the other dh_install* commands as well.
