6 .I "[-x] [-v] [-a] [-i] [-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.
26 .B \-ppackage, \--package=package
27 Generate md5sums file for the package named "package".
29 .B \-x, \--include-conffiles
30 Include conffiles in the md5sums list. Note that this is redundant, and
31 included elsewhere in debian packages.
33 .B \-Ptmpdir, \--tmpdir=tmpdir
34 Use "tmpdir" for package build directory.
41 arguments are cumulative. If none are specified, then all packages listed in
42 the control file will be effected.
