47 "Debhelper is used to help you build a debian package. The philosophy behind "
48 "debhelper is to provide a collection of small, simple, and easily understood "
49 "tools that are used in debian/rules to automate various common aspects of "
50 "building a package. This means less work for you, the packager. It also, to "
51 "some degree means that these tools can be changed if debian policy changes, "
52 "and packages that use them will require only a rebuild to comply with the "
59 "A typical debian/rules file that uses debhelper will call several debhelper "
60 "commands in sequence. Debhelper commands are all named with a \"dh_\" "
61 "prefix. Examples of rules files that use debhelper are in "
62 "F</usr/share/doc/debhelper/examples/>"
68 "To create a new debian package using debhelper, you can just copy one of the "
69 "sample rules files and edit it by hand. Or you can try the dh-make package, "
70 "which contains a L<dh_make|dh_make(1)> command that partially automates the "
71 "process. For a more gentle introduction, the maint-guide debian package "
72 "contains a tutorial about making your first package using debhelper."
77 msgid "DEBHELPER COMMANDS"
83 "Here is the complete list of available debhelper commands. See their man "
84 "pages for additional documentation."
95 "If a program's name starts with \"dh_\", and the program is not on the above "
96 "list, then it is not part of the debhelper package, but it should still work "
97 "like the other programs described on this page."
102 msgid "DEBHELPER CONFIG FILES"
108 "Many debhelper commands make use of files in F<debian/> to control what they "
109 "do. Besides the common F<debian/changelog> and F<debian/control>, which are "
110 "in all packages, not just those using debhelper, some additional files can "
111 "be used to configure the behavior of specific debhelper commands. These "
112 "files are typically named debian/package.foo (where \"package\" of course, "
113 "is replaced with the package that is being acted on)."
119 "For example, dh_installdocs uses files named debian/package.docs to list the "
120 "documentation files it will install. See the man pages of individual "
121 "commands for details about the names and formats of the files they use. "
122 "Generally, these files will list files to act on, one file per line. Some "
123 "programs in debhelper use pairs of files and destinations or slightly more "
124 "complicated formats."
130 "Note that if a package is the first (or only) binary package listed in "
131 "debian/control, debhelper will use debian/foo if no debian/package.foo file "
138 "In some rare cases, you may want to have different versions of these files "
139 "for different architectures. If files named debian/package.foo.arch exist, "
140 "where \"arch\" is the same as the output of \"dpkg --print-architecture\", "
141 "then they will be used in preference to other, more general files."
147 "In many cases, these config files are used to specify various types of "
148 "files. Documentation or example files to install, files to move, and so on. "
149 "When appropriate, in cases like these, you can use standard shell wildcard "
150 "characters ('?' and '*' and '[..]' character classes) in the files."
156 "You can also put comments in these files; lines beginning with \"#\" are "

172 msgid "B<-v>, B<--verbose>"
177 msgid "Verbose mode: show all commands that modify the package build directory."
188 "Do not really do anything. If used with -v, the result is that the command "
189 "will output what it would have done."
194 msgid "B<-a>, B<--arch>"
199 msgid "Act on all architecture dependent packages."
204 msgid "B<-i>, B<--indep>"
209 msgid "Act on all architecture independent packages."
214 msgid "B<->I<ppackage>, B<--package=>I<package>"
220 "Act on the package named \"package\". This option may be specified multiple "
221 "times to make debhelper operate on a given set of packages."
226 msgid "B<-s>, B<--same-arch>"
232 "This is a smarter version of the -a flag, that is used in some rare "
233 "circumstances. It understands that if the control file lists \"Architecture: "
234 "i386\" for the package, the package should not be acted on on other "
235 "architectures. So this flag makes the command act on all \"Architecture: "
236 "any\" packages, as well as on any packages that have the current "
237 "architecture explicitly specified. Contrast to the -a flag, which makes the "
238 "command work on all packages that are not architecture independent."
243 msgid "B<-N>I<package>, B<--no-package=>I<package>"
249 "Do not act on the specified package even if an -a, -i, or -p option lists "
250 "the package as one that should be acted on."
255 msgid "B<-P>I<tmpdir>, B<--tmpdir=>I<tmpdir>"
260 msgid "Use \"tmpdir\" for package build directory. The default is debian/<package>"
265 msgid "B<--mainpackage=>I<package>"
271 "This little-used option changes the package which debhelper considers the "
272 "\"main package\", that is, the first one listed in debian/control, and the "
273 "one for which debian/foo files can be used instead of the usual "
274 "debian/package.foo files."
279 msgid "COMMON DEBHELPER OPTIONS"
285 "The following command line options are supported by some debhelper "
286 "programs. See the man page of each program for a complete explanation of "

331 msgid "Multiple binary package support"
337 "If your source package generates more than one binary package, debhelper "
338 "programs will default to acting on all binary packages when run. If your "
339 "source package happens to generate one architecture dependent package, and "
340 "another architecture independent package, this is not the correct behavior, "
341 "because you need to generate the architecture dependent packages in the "
342 "binary-arch debian/rules target, and the architecture independent packages "
343 "in the binary-indep debian/rules target."
349 "To facilitate this, as well as give you more control over which packages are "
350 "acted on by debhelper programs, all debhelper programs accept the B<-a>, "
351 "B<-i>, B<-p>, and B<-s> parameters. These parameters are cumulative. If "
352 "none are given, debhelper programs default to acting on all packages listed "
353 "in the control file."
359 "See F</usr/share/doc/debhelper/examples/rules.multi> for an example of how "
360 "to use this in a package that generates multiple binary packages."
365 msgid "Automatic generation of debian install scripts"
371 "Some debhelper commands will automatically generate parts of debian "
372 "maintainer scripts. If you want these automatically generated things "
373 "included in your existing debian maintainer scripts, then you need to add "
374 "\"#DEBHELPER#\" to your scripts, in the place the code should be added. "
375 "\"#DEBHELPER#\" will be replaced by any auto-generated code when you run "

397 "it in a perl script. If you would like to embed it into a perl script, here "
398 "is one way to do that (note that I made sure that $1, $2, etc are set with "
406 " my $temp=\"set -e\\nset -- @ARGV\\n\" . << 'EOF';\n"
409 " system ($temp) / 256 == 0\n"
410 " \tor die \"Problem with debhelper scripts: $!\";\n"
416 msgid "Automatic generation of miscellaneous dependencies."
422 "Some debhelper commands may make the generated package need to depend on "
423 "some other packages. For example, if you use L<dh_installdebconf(1)>, your "
424 "package will generally need to depend on debconf. Or if you use "
425 "L<dh_installxfonts(1)>, your package will generally need to depend on a "
426 "particular version of xutils. Keeping track of these miscellaneous "
427 "dependencies can be annoying since they are dependant on how debhelper does "
428 "things, so debhelper offers a way to automate it."
434 "All commands of this type, besides documenting what dependencies may be "
435 "needed on their man pages, will automatically generate a substvar called "
436 "${misc:Depends}. If you put that token into your debian/control file, it "
437 "will be expanded to the dependencies debhelper figures you need."
443 "This is entirely independent of the standard ${shlibs:Depends} generated by "
444 "L<dh_makeshlibs(1)>, and the ${perl:Depends} generated by L<dh_perl(1)>. "
445 "You can choose not to use any of these, if debhelper's guesses don't match "
451 msgid "Package build directories"
457 "By default, all debhelper programs assume that the temporary directory used "
458 "for assembling the tree of files in a package is debian/<package>."
464 "Sometimes, you might want to use some other temporary directory. This is "
465 "supported by the -P flag. For example, \"dh_installdocs -Pdebian/tmp\", will "
466 "use debian/tmp as the temporary directory. Note that if you use -P, the "
467 "debhelper programs can only be acting on a single package at a time. So if "
468 "you have a package that builds many binary packages, you will need to also "
469 "use the -p flag to specify which binary package the debhelper program will "
475 msgid "Debhelper compatibility levels"
481 "From time to time, major non-backwards-compatible changes need to be made to "
482 "debhelper, to keep it clean and well-designed as needs change and its author "
483 "gains more experience. To prevent such major changes from breaking existing "
484 "packages, the concept of debhelper compatibility levels was introduced. You "
485 "tell debhelper which compatibility level it should use, and it modifies its "
486 "behavior in various ways."
492 "Tell debhelper what compatibility level to use by writing a number to "
493 "debian/compat. For example, to turn on V5 mode:"
500 " % echo 5 > debian/compat\n"
507 "Unless otherwise indicated, all debhelper documentation assumes that you are "
508 "using the most recent compatibility level, and in most cases does not "
509 "indicate if the behavior is different in an earlier compatibility level, so "
510 "if you are not using the most recent compatibility level, you're advised to "
511 "read below for notes about what is different in earlier compatibility "
517 msgid "These are the available compatibility levels:"
528 "This is the original debhelper compatibility level, and so it is the default "
529 "one. In this mode, debhelper will use debian/tmp as the package tree "

653 msgid "Doc directory symlinks"
659 "Sometimes it is useful to make a package not contain a "
660 "/usr/share/doc/package directory at all, instead placing just a dangling "
661 "symlink in the binary package, that points to some other doc "
662 "directory. Policy says this is ok if your package depends on the package "
663 "whose doc directory it uses. To accomplish this, just don't tell debhelper "
664 "to install any documentation files into the package, and use dh_link to set "
665 "up the symlink (or do it by hand), and debhelper should do the right thing: "
666 "notice it is a dangling symlink and not try to install a copyright file or "
678 "Debhelper includes support for udebs. To create a udeb with debhelper, add "
679 "\"XC-Package-Type: udeb\" to the package's stanza in debian/control, and "
680 "build-depend on debhelper (>= 4.2). Debhelper will try to create udebs that "
681 "comply with debian-installer policy, by making the generated package files "
682 "end in \".udeb\", not installing any documentation into a udeb, skipping "
683 "over preinst, postrm, prerm, and config scripts, etc."
694 "In general, if any debhelper program needs a directory to exist under "
695 "debian/, it will create it. I haven't bothered to document this in all the "
696 "man pages, but for example, dh_installdeb knows to make "
697 "debian/<package>/DEBIAN/ before trying to put files there, dh_installmenu "
698 "knows you need a debian/<package>/usr/share/menu/ before installing the menu "
705 "Once your package uses debhelper to build, be sure to add debhelper to your "
706 "Build-Depends line in debian/control. You should build-depend on a version "
707 "of debhelper equal to (or greater than) the debhelper compatibility level "
708 "your package uses. So if your package used compatibility level 5:"

755 msgid "Set to 1 to enable no-act mode."
766 "Anything in this variable will be prepended to the command line arguments of "
767 "all debhelper commands. This is useful in some situations, for example, if "
768 "you need to pass -p to all debhelper commands that will be run. One good way "
769 "to set DH_OPTIONS is by using \"Target-specific Variable Values\" in your "

790 "case setting DH_ALWAYS_EXCLUDE=CVS will prevent any CVS directories from "
791 "sneaking into the package you build. Or, if a package has a source tarball "
792 "that (unwisely) includes CVS directories, you might want to export "
