It is a file and not a directory and doesn't actually include the files itself. See e.g. libreoffice: $ cat debian/source/include-binaries debian/templates/debian-presentation.otp debian/templates/debian-presentation-background.xcf desktop/test/deployment/update/platform/linux_sparc64.oxt tarballs/798b2ffdc8bcfe7bca2cf92b62caf685-rhino1_5R5.zip tarballs/35c94d2df8893241173de1d16b6034c0-swingExSrc.zip tarballs/a7983f859eafb2677d7ff386a023bc40-xsltml_2.1.2.zip tarballs/pdfium-4260.tar.bz2 tarballs/skia-m85-e684c6daef6bfb774a325a069eda1f76ca6ac26c.tar.xz tarballs/dtoa-20180411.tgz So just put it into debian/ (or even directly in the dir where it is supposed to be, saves you cp and cleanup) and document it in include-binaries. Then it properly ends up in the .debian.tar.xz Regards, Rene
