+## === the chain of command ===
+## debuild runs a chain of dh functions in the following order:
+## dh_testdir
+## dh_clean
+## dh_auto_clean
+## dh_update_autotools_config
+## dh_autoreconf
+## dh_auto_configure
+## dh_prep
+## dh_build
+## dh_auto_build
+## dh_install
+## dh_auto_install
+## dh_installdocs
+## dh_installchangelogs
+## dh_perl
+## dh_link
+## dh_strip_nondeterminism
+## dh_compress
+## dh_fixperms
+## dh_missing
+## dh_dwz
+## dh_strip
+## dh_makeshlibs
+## dh_shlibdeps
+## dh_installdeb
+## dh_gencontrol
+## but you are most likely to only need to override the following:
+## dh_clean
+## dh_auto_configure
+## dh_build
+## dh_install
+
+## === End end of region ===
+
+## === overriding dh functions ===
+## by default all dh functions will run a specific command based on the build system selected by "dh $@"
+## if you have a makefile that does everything you need this is fine,
+## but most likely you have no MakeFile and you want to add your own commands
+## Note : overrides must be places above %:
+## So here's a few examples:
+
+override_dh_auto_build:
+	cd hyprland-share-picker && make all && cd ..
+
+## overriding dh_clean to make it not delete rust vendor files:
+#override_dh_clean:
+#	echo "disabled"
+
+## overriding dh_auto_configure to add custom configs:
+#override_dh_auto_configure:
+#		$(srcdir)/configure -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_DATADIR=/usr/share -DCMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -DBUILD_PLUGIN=OFF
+
+## overriding dh_install to install files to a package:
+override_dh_install:
+		install -d $(pkgdir)/usr/bin
+		cp $(srcdir)/hyprland-share-picker/build/hyprland-share-picker $(pkgdir)/usr/bin/hyprland-share-picker
+		rm -Rf $(pkgdir)/usr/share/hyprland-protocols
+		rm -f $(pkgdir)/usr/share/pkgconfig/hyprland-protocols.pc
+## === End end of region ===
+
+## This here will start the build:
 %:
-	dh $@ --buildsystem=meson
+	dh $@
