+
+B<dh_clean> [S<I<debhelper options>>] [B<-k>] [B<-d>] [B<-X>I<item>] [S<I<file ...>>]
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+dh_clean is a debhelper program that is responsible for cleaning up after a
+package is built. It removes the package build directories, and removes some
+other files including debian/files, and any detritus left behind by other
+debhelper commands. It also removes common files that should not appear in a
+debian diff:
+ #*# *~ DEADJOE *.orig *.rej *.SUMS TAGS .deps/* *.P *-stamp
+
+The debian/clean file can list other files to be removed.
+
+It does not run "make clean" to clean up after the build process. Use
+L<dh_auto_clean(1)> to do that.
+
+dh_clean (or "dh clean") should be the last debhelper command run in the
+clean target in debian/rules.
