I've been trying to create my first debian package following the New 
Maintainers Guide, and I've run into a problem. The guide mentions that 
binaries should be installed to ./debian/tmp and then dh_movefiles will move 
them as necessary to the correct destination. Unfortunately, while the 
destination directories are created correctly ./debian/tmp is not, so when 
the make tries to install I get "No such file or directory".

The example uses install with the -d flag, which would avoid this problem. 
However I would like to avoid having to make any further changes to the build 
system if that were possible, and it would seem that there should be a 
debhelper that might do this.
