dh_clean is a debhelper program that is responsible for cleaning up after a
package is built. It removes the package build directories, and removes some
-other files, such as debian/substvars, debian/files, and any detritus left
-behind by other debhelper commands (debian/*.debhelper). It also removes
-common files that should not appear in a debian diff:
- #*# *~ DEADJOE *.orig *.rej *.SUMS TAGS core .deps/* *.P
+other files including debian/files, and any detritus left behind by other
+debhelper commands. It also removes common files that should not appear in a
+debian diff:
+ #*# *~ DEADJOE *.orig *.rej *.SUMS TAGS .deps/* *.P
+
+It does not run "make clean" to clean up after the build process. Use
+L<dh_auto_clean(1)> to do that.
+
+The debian/clean file can list other files to be removed.
