Bug#409098: Please check that *.deb contains all directories mentioned in debian/dirs
tags 409098 moreinfo
thanks
I still don't understand what the point would be for this. Could you
explain further?
It seems like we'd just be checking whether someone added a debian/dirs
file without the corresponding dh_installdirs invocation, but there are a
*lot* of varients of bugs of that sort and I'm not sure that getting into
the business of checking one's debian/* files for consistency with
debhelper dh_* invocations is where we want to go. Seems rife with false
positives and unlikely to catch real bugs.
