Dear Maintainer,

My workspace path was /myapp and make install created files in /usr/include/myapp/...
As the path contained the /myapp it was wrongly excluded due to an error in the grep pattern.
Therefore the deb file created by did not contain the files in /usr/include.

The line containing the error is the following (the ^ is missing in the pattern, correct pattern at line 1746):

Best regards,
Vincent
