Hi Peter,

I believe the previous way of doing this was -

override_dh_foo:
    dh_foo
    <do stuff>

which is now less verbose if you want -

execute_after_dh_foo:
    <do stuff>

or execute_before, when you need that.

My understanding is that there is no added benefit than less verbosity and maybe more clarity (since it tells you in a first glance that it should run before/after dh_foo). So yes, nothing problematic as long as you still have dh_foo there once you use override_dh_foo, but these execute_* targets feel much better to me. tbph, overriding a target only to run the exact same thing again makes me feel stupid each time, so I change the older patters whenever I come across them in a package :p

Best,
Ananthu

>As long as the override_dh_auto_clean target still contains dh_auto_clean the original functionality should be retained. At least this is my understanding. Please correct me if this is wrong. But you are perfectly right that using execute_after_dh_auto_clean is less error-prone. Thanks for this suggestion. I added it to my notes. :-)
