=head1 SYNOPSIS
-B<dh_auto_clean> [S<I<debhelper options>>] [S<I<dh_auto options>>] [S<B<--> I<params>>]
+B<dh_auto_clean> [S<I<build system options>>] [S<I<debhelper options>>] [S<B<--> I<params>>]
=head1 DESCRIPTION
-dh_auto_clean is a debhelper program that is responsible for the I<clean> step
-of the L<dh_auto(7)> building process. It tries to automatically clean up after
-a package build by removing all temporary files from the build directory or
-even the build directory itself as appropriate. dh_auto_clean will fail only if
-the source build system clean routine fails. However, if the latter does not
-exist or there is nothing to clean it will exit with zero status doing nothing.
+B<dh_auto_clean> is a debhelper program that tries to automatically clean up
+after a package build. It does so by running the appropriate command for
+the build system it detects the package uses. For example, if there's a
+F<Makefile> and it contains a B<distclean>, B<realclean>, or B<clean> target,
+then this is done by running B<make> (or B<MAKE>, if the environment variable is
+set). If there is a F<setup.py> or F<Build.PL>, it is run to clean the package.
-If dh_auto_clean does not meet your needs or does not work, it is safe to
-skip/override it entirely and just run clean up manually.

-#DH_AUTO SHARED OPTIONS#
+This is intended to work for about 90% of packages. If it doesn't work, or
+tries to use the wrong clean target, you're encouraged to skip using
+B<dh_auto_clean> at all, and just run B<make clean> manually.
=head1 OPTIONS
+See L<debhelper(7)/B<BUILD SYSTEM OPTIONS>> for a list of common build
+system selection and control options.

=item B<--> I<params>
-Pass "params" to the program that is run. These can be used to supplement
-or override the any standard parameters that dh_auto_clean passes.
+Pass I<params> to the program that is run, after the parameters that
+B<dh_auto_clean> usually passes.
