Hi Max,
When using two columns for a line in a debian/*.install file, you
actually pick from the source tree - not from the installed files! The
first column specify which files in the source tree to pick, the
second column specify where it will be installed. See
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/dother.en.html#install
Should we be worried that it might break some time in
future? Should we move those headers away from noinst_* section?
So this should always work - as long as the files are not moved to
another place in the source tree.. No need to worry.
Cheers
Ruben

Hi.
There's strange thing about the way autoconf and debian/rules interact for
OpenBSC:
- in openbsc/include/openbsc/Makefile.am gsm_data_shared.h and common_cs.h
are in noinst_HEADERS
- in debian/openbsc-dev.install they are marked for installation
And this actually works! If you run "dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us -tc" you'll
get openbsc-dev*.deb with those headers properly installed.
It's nice but feels a bit too much like magic. Any ideas how dh_install (or
smth else?) manages to work around it?
Should we be worried that it might break some time in future? Should we move
those headers away from noinst_* section?
