That being said, searching for https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=override_dh_auto_configure+path%3Adebian%2Frules let me find this example: https://sources.debian.org/src/webkit2gtk/2.50.3-1/debian/rules which is not perfect for your need, but very close to what you need to do in debian/rules > > Thanks, Gio. >
