Thanks for the hint, Gergely. Unfortunately the man page, in
particular the EXAMPLES section, does not address my *initial*
question (AFAIK):
---{original question}---
Is there an easy way to tell "dh" that it should
use Makefile.linux instead of Makefile?
Or do I need to perform override_dh_* for all the targets that need to be used?
---{end}---
And really at this point my original question is making less and less
sense as I think about it.
I am familiar with the override syntax of dh, if that is what you were
referring to when you mentioned the question I asked about being
answered in the dh man page.
I am using the dh_override_* mechanisms now.

Okay. Thanks for the info.
