8 dh_shlibdeps is a debhelper program that is responsible for calculating
9 shared library dependancies for packages.
11 This program is merely a wrapper around
12 .BR dpkg-shlibdeps (1)
13 that calls it once for each package listed in the control file, passing it
14 a list of ELF executables and shared libraries it has found.
20 for a list of options common to all debhelper commands.
22 .B \-uparams, \--dpkg-shlibdeps-params=params
26 .BR dpkg-shlibdeps (1)
28 .B \-Xitem, \--exclude=item
29 Exclude files that contain "item" anywhere in their filename from being
30 passed to dpkg-shlibdeps. This will make their dependancies be ignored.
31 This may be useful in some situations, but use it with caution. This option
32 may be used more than once to exclude more than one thing.
35 This option is ignored, for backwards compatability.
