Package: debhelper
Version: 8.0.0
Severity: important
Today, I tried to create a package. I pick some part of debian/rules of
one of my other packages. And my override_dh_... rules were ignored!
Trying to isolate the problem, I succeed in reproducing it with a minimal
example. However, I really do not understand the current behavior.
vdanj...@eyak:/tmp$ mkdir foo-1.0
vdanj...@eyak:/tmp$ cd foo-1.0/
vdanj...@eyak:/tmp/foo-1.0$ touch Makefile.in
vdanj...@eyak:/tmp/foo-1.0$ dh_make -s --createorig

Type of Package : Single
Hit <enter> to confirm:
Currently there is no top level Makefile. This may require additional tuning.
Done. Please edit the files in the debian/ subdirectory now. You should also
check that the foo Makefiles install into $DESTDIR and not in / .

With a (here empty) Makefile.in in the base directory, the override_dh_* rules
are ignored!
Is there something I'm missing or is there really a bug?
If it is really a bug, I think it can be grave as it can cause FTBFS of
other package. For example, I think now that the 'bug fix' [1] in my yaz
package was, in fact, a workaround for this bug. At that time, I did not really
understand why it was working before and not anymore but I was busy and did not
investigate more.
Regards,
Vincent
