Package: debhelper Version: 8.9.2 Severity: normal
Hi, I'm preparing a package which contains one single binary and some texinfo documentation. But when I do dpkg-buildpackage, a debian/package/usr/share/info/dir.gz is automatically generated. lintian doesn't like at all. In other words, it complains with the presence of dir.gz, but this file is auto-generated by debhelper. The info file is created in the parent directory, debian/../. So I think this dir.gz shouldn't be generated automatically in such situations. I hope it helps.
