The current tree is:

./debian/build/x11 where the normal build happens
./debian/build/directfb for the directfb backend (used by the installer)
./debian/tmp/x11 where the normal backend is installed
./debian/tmp/directfb where the directfb backend is installed

Now, debian/gtk2-engines.install and debian/gtk2-engines-udeb.install contain:

$ cat debian/gtk2-engines.install
# from the x11 flavor
usr/lib/gtk-2.0/*/engines/*.so
usr/share/gtk-engines
usr/share/themes/*/gtk-2.0

$ cat debian/gtk2-engines-udeb.install
# from the directfb flavor
usr/lib/gtk-2.0/*/engines/libclearlooks.so
usr/lib/gtk-2.0/*/engines/libhcengine.so


and debian/rules passes --sourcedir with debian/tmp/x11 and debian/tmp/directfb
for the normal package and the udeb, accordingly (as you can see above).

With debhelper 7.2.14 (testing), after running that dh_install command, I get:
debian/gtk2-engines/usr
debian/gtk2-engines-udeb/usr

However with debhelper 7.2.21, what I get is:
debian/gtk2-engines/x11
debian/gtk2-engines/directfb

So it seems to me debhelper has accidentally broken --sourcedir.

Compat is 5, FWIW.

Best regards,
Emilio
