19 dh_md5sums is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating
20 a DEBIAN/md5sums file, which lists the md5sums of each file in the package.
21 These files are used by the debsums package.
23 All files in DEBIAN/ are omitted from the md5sums file, as are all
24 conffiles (unless you use the --include-conffiles switch).
26 The md5sums file is installed with proper permissions and ownerships.
32 =item B<-x>, B<--include-conffiles>
34 Include conffiles in the md5sums list. Note that this information is
35 redundant since it is included elsewhere in debian packages.
37 =item B<-X>I<item>, B<--exclude=>I<item>
39 Exclude files that contain "item" anywhere in their filename from
40 being listed in the md5sums file.
47 "x" => \$dh{INCLUDE_CONFFILES}, # is -x for some unknown historical reason..
48 "include-conffiles" => \$dh{INCLUDE_CONFFILES},
