3 dh_md5sums \- generate DEBIAN/md5sums file
6 .I "[-x] [-v] [-a] [-i] [--no-act] [-Ptmpdir] [-ppackage]"
8 dh_md5sums is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating
9 a DEBIAN/md5sums file, which lists the md5sums of each file in the package.
11 All files in DEBIAN/ are omitted from the md5sums file, as are all conffiles
12 (unless you use the -x switch).
14 The md5sums file is installed with proper permissions and ownerships.
18 Verbose mode; show all commands that modify the package build directory.
21 Generate md5sums files for all architecture dependent packages.
24 Generate md5sums files for all architecture independent packages.
27 Do not really do anything. If used with -v, the result is that this command
28 will output a list of what it would have done.
30 .B \-ppackage, \--package=package
31 Generate md5sums file for the package named "package".
33 .B \-x, \--include-conffiles
34 Include conffiles in the md5sums list. Note that this is redundant, and
35 included elsewhere in debian packages.
37 .B \-Ptmpdir, \--tmpdir=tmpdir
38 Use "tmpdir" for package build directory.
45 arguments are cumulative. If none are specified, then all packages listed in
46 the control file will be effected.
53 Enables no-act mode (see above).
