Lintian tag: dh-exec-useless-usage

Type: information

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

The package uses dh-exec for things it is not needed for.

This typically includes using ${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH} in an install target
where a wildcard would suffice. For example, if you had:

#! /usr/bin/dh-exec
usr/lib/${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH}

This could be replaced with the following in most cases, dropping the need
for dh-exec:

usr/lib/*

However, there may be other directories that match the wildcard, which one
does not wish to install. In that case, this warning should be ignored or
overridden.
