Package: debhelper
Version: 13.2
Severity: normal
Steps to reproduce:
override_dh_installchangelogs:
mkdir -p debian/tmp
generate-or-convert-changelog-here >> debian/tmp/changelog
dh_installchangelogs debian/tmp/changelog
Result:
dh_missing: warning: changelog exists in debian/tmp but is not installed to
anywhere
dh_missing: error: missing files, aborting
Meanwhile the upstream changelog has been correction installed to each
of the debian/bin-pkg/u/s/doc/changelog.gz locations. Debhelper 12
was definitely good, and I'm not sure if the regression was introduced
in 13, 13.1, or 13.2.
f3ce4ba3a5e2f9515b0ebe1940aed81ce9a92c49 looks like a possible culprit,
but that's just a guess.
Falling back to debhelper-compat 12 avoids triggering this bug. I
hope noting this fact makes it easier to track down, because it means
that the bug is in a branch specific to ≥ debhelper-compat 13.
