Of course, if you don't actually want to recurse, but just want the
files in the top level of the samples directory (I'm assuming you want
to preserve the structure there):
for file in `find samples/* -type f -print -type d -prune`; do \
install -m 644 $$file $(tmp)/usr/doc/$(pkg)/examples; \
done
Or even:
for dir in `find samples -type d -print`; do
install -d -m 755 $(tmp)/usr/doc/$(pkg)/examples/`echo $$dir |
sed 's/^samples\///'`; \
done
for file in `find samples -type f -print`; do \
install -m 644 $$file $(tmp)/usr/doc/$(pkg)/examples/`echo
$$file | sed 's/^samples\///'`; \
done
Which preserves the directory structure. Of course if there are only
a few directories, it's simpler to do
install -d -m 755 $(tmp)/usr/doc/$(pkg)/examples/admin
install -d -m 755 $(tmp)/usr/doc/$(pkg)/examples/otherdir
And then:
for file in `find samples/* -type f -print -type d -prune`; do \
install -m 644 $$file $(tmp)/usr/doc/$(pkg)/examples; \
done
for file in `find samples/admin/* -type f -print -type d -prune`; do \
install -m 644 $$file $(tmp)/usr/doc/$(pkg)/examples/admin; \
done
for file in `find samples/otherdir/* -type f -print -type d -prune`; do
\
install -m 644 $$file $(tmp)/usr/doc/$(pkg)/examples/otherdir; \
done
