Package: debhelper Version: 9.20120909 Severity: wishlist Hi! From current debhelper manpage:
In some rare cases, you may want to have different versions of these files for different architectures or OSes. If files named debian/package.foo.ARCH or debian/package.foo.OS exist, where ARCH and OS are the same as the output of "dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_ARCH" / "dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_ARCH_OS", then they will be used in preference to other, more general files. In some not so unormal cases (like packaging Qt and KDE stuff) it would be *really nice* to be able to tell dh_install to process both the normal foo.install and/or foo.ARCH/foo.OS files. In this way we could put the common stuff in foo.install and add the necessary missing files in foo.install.ARCH and/or foo.install.OS. This can be currently done by hacking debian/rules, but it would be nice to have some parameters to simplify this task.
