This works, but we build distribution data in /BUILD, which is
something that gradle-debian-helper doesn't know about ;-)
But why extend dh_auto_build for cleaning?
override_dh_auto_build:
dh_auto_build -- clean build -x test
(is that what you meant?) --> in this case, "gradle clean" won't be
executed in the dh_clean step.
or is this recommended?
override_dh_clean:
dh_clean
gradle clean
[...]
or this?
override_dh_clean:
dh_clean
# is this safe in case the user calls debian/rules from somewhere
# other than the toplevel build directory?
rm -rf BUILD
[...]
(I guess I shall check whether ./debian exists?)
Many Thanks and Best Regards,
