Hello!

I'm sorry, I'm replying to an old post... :-D

I used dh_lisp in the cl-rfc2388 (and I'm planning to use it also 
in cl-s-xml and all the other CL packages I'll deal with), because 
it's very useful and I don't need to care of correct link, etc.

However, I'd like to be sure of what I did.

Calling "dh_lisp rfc2388" will search for 
debian/rfc2388.sh. However, rfc2388 doesn't have any "binary" to 
install in /usr/lib/[cl]/bin/, so dh_lisp fails. Instead, if I 
call "dh_lisp" only, it correctly find my rfc2388.asd and installs 
it, genearting the postinst and prerm scripts.

Am I correct if I understood that as the intended behaviour?

Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca

PS, René, have you considered to apply for dh_lisp inclusion in 
debhelper?
