From debhelper compatibility level 7 on, dh_install will fall back to
looking in debian/tmp for files, if it doesn't find them in the current
-directory (or whereever you've told it to look using --srcdir).

-=item B<-Xitem>, B<--exclude=item>

-Exclude files that contain "item" anywhere in their filename from
-being installed.
-
=item B<--autodest>
Guess as the destination directory to install things to. If this is
debian/package.install file, with no explicit destination, then dh_install
will automatically guess the destination even if this flag is not set.
+=item B<--fail-missing>
+
+This option is like --list-missing, except if a file was missed, it will
+not only list the missing files, but also fail with a nonzero exit code.
+
=item B<--list-missing>
This option makes dh_install keep track of the files it installs, and then at
Note that files that are excluded from being moved via the -X option are not
warned about.

-To make dh_install behave like the old dh_movefiles, move your
-package.files file to package.install and call dh_install with
-"--sourcedir=debian/tmp" appended to the command. This will
-approximate dh_movefiles behaviour, except it will copy files instead
-of moving them.
