SYNOPSIS

installing examples into usr/share/doc/package/examples in package
build directories.
FILES
- debian/package.examples

Lists example files or directories to be installed.
OPTIONS
- -A, --all
-
Install any files specified by command line parameters in ALL packages
acted on.
- -Xitem, --exclude=item

Exclude files that contain item anywhere in their filename from
being installed.

if you ask it to (similar to cp -a). If it is asked to install a
directory, it will install the complete contents of the directory.
