+* In general, if any debhelper program needs a directory to exist under
+  debian/, it will create it. I haven't bothered to document this in all the
+  man pages, but for example, dh_installdeb knows to make debian/tmp/DEBIAN/
+  before trying to put files there, dh_installmenu knows you need a
+  debian/tmp/usr/lib/menu/ before installing the menu files, etc.
