ines above are from the example scripts in /usr/share/debhelper/dh_make/debian*/rules if you debianize a source package by running dh_make, #PACKAGE# will be replaced with the package name. If you just copy them yourself you need to change the #PACKAGE# reference yourself. However, the #DEBHELPER# anchors allow dh_installdocs, dh_installmenu, et al to add the appropriate script fragments in their place. Good luck Gordon Sadler
