I think you might have found an issue with the distinction of S and D.
In fact they should be different folders but for dpkg-raw they are not.
I think also the debianize class does not clearly distinguish them.

One workaround would be to create that second copy on your own. So you
clone i.e with destsuffix and make sure that the unpacked copy and the
installed copy are not the same directory.

Once you have found a solution and have a clue where the line between S
and D should be drawn, please give feedback on how to improve the class.
