deb - Can't get the build process on my Ubuntu PPA to use my debian/install file -


i'm going insane here. i've built tool doesn't need actual compilation - it's perl script - , when run bzr builddeb on it, working .deb file copies script - zfsync - /usr/bin/zfsync when run dpkg -i zfsync_1.0.0-0ubuntu3_all.deb.

however, when run bzr builddeb -s , dput resulting source.changes file ppa, builds without errors... apt-get install zfsync results in "successful" installation, binary isn't placed in /usr/bin!

i have debian/install file contains zfsync usr/bin , nothing else. out of desperation, created simple makefile which, if make install run, copy zfsync /usr/bin also. nothing seems help, though, , half-hour "build" time on canonical's godawful arm-based ppa farm making me lose mind.

when apt-get source zfsync, looking in source directory fetched shows me no debian/install file whatsoever. don't know why ppa stripping file, apparently - , without it, script doesn't installed.

please, please, there packaging gurus out there? help!

i still have no idea why screwing me - following ubuntu packaging guide letter - got working.

what ended doing is: apt-get source zfsync different directory, investigating in there.

in addition "zfsync-1.0.0" folder contained stuff, there "zfsync" folder had usr/share/doc in there no usr/bin @ all. manually created usr/bin/zfsync in "zfsync" folder, made damn "debian/install" had "zfsync usr/bin" in it, did bzr init, bzr commit, , dput ppa:jrssnet/zfsync zfsync_1.0.0-0ubuntu5_source.changes ... and, 5 or ten minutes later, success! ubuntu's build process resulted in not .deb, .deb installed damn script. :)
