16 =head1 DESCRIPTION
17
18 dh_gencontrol is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating
19 control files, and installing them into the DEBIAN directory with the
20 proper permissions.
21
22 This program is merely a wrapper around L<dpkg-gencontrol(1)>, which calls
23 it once for each package being acted on, and passes in some additional
24 useful flags including "-isp".
