Sorry about that.

Below is a cut from the debian/rules file:
[...]
install: build
dh_testdir
dh_testroot
dh_clean -k
dh_installdirs
# Add here commands to install the package into debian/wmcpuload.
$(MAKE) install prefix=$(CURDIR)/debian/wmcpuload
# $(MAKE) install destdir=$(CURDIR)/debian/wmcpuload
[...]
I've tried both of the $(MAKE)-lines above, but none of them seems to be
working. Is there anything else I should do to put the single binary in
/usr/X11/bin ?
