[debhelper-devel] Bug#815506: dh_install: not-installed requires debian/tmp/ prefix

[Felix Geyer]

Package: debhelper
Version: 9.20160115
Severity: normal

Hi,

Contrary to *.install files the lines in debian/not-installed require a
debian/tmp/ prefix.

For example this d/not-installed file doesn't work:
usr/bin/passenger-install-nginx-module

While this works:
debian/tmp/usr/bin/passenger-install-nginx-module

This seems unnecessary and is not documented.
It would be great if dh_install could add the prefix automatically.

Thanks,
Felix
