It is up to you to use debhelper or not, so just use something else - you have experience in writing tools-which-do-the-same-thing-as-existing-tools. You could report a bug report if you don't like it, but it is up to Joey to follow it or not. You could do a NMU if you want people to complain about your behaviour to DAM. You could even talk to the CTTE if you want to waste more people's time. And yes, you could even fork (its open source!) a dh_install package - or instead of wasting ftp master resources, just ship your own dh_install script in your debian folders. I'll happily use the new dh_install feature instead of whining. -- Bernd Zeimetz Debian GNU/Linux Developer http://bzed.de http://www.debian.org GPG Fingerprint: ECA1 E3F2 8E11 2432 D485 DD95 EB36 171A 6FF9 435F -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
