48 "Debhelper is used to help you build a debian package. The philosophy behind "
49 "debhelper is to provide a collection of small, simple, and easily understood "
50 "tools that are used in debian/rules to automate various common aspects of "
51 "building a package. This means less work for you, the packager. It also, to "
52 "some degree means that these tools can be changed if debian policy changes, "
53 "and packages that use them will require only a rebuild to comply with the "
60 "A typical debian/rules file that uses debhelper will call several debhelper "
61 "commands in sequence, or use L<dh(1)> to automate this process. Examples of "
62 "rules files that use debhelper are in 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-architecture "
141 "-qDEB_HOST_ARCH\", then they will be used in preference to other, more "
148 "In many cases, these config files are used to specify various types of "
149 "files. Documentation or example files to install, files to move, and so on. "
150 "When appropriate, in cases like these, you can use standard shell wildcard "
151 "characters ('?' and '*' and '[..]' character classes) in the files."
157 "You can also put comments in these files; lines beginning with \"#\" are "

173 msgid "B<-v>, B<--verbose>"
178 msgid "Verbose mode: show all commands that modify the package build directory."
189 "Do not really do anything. If used with -v, the result is that the command "
190 "will output what it would have done."

200 msgid "Act on all architecture dependent packages."
205 msgid "B<-i>, B<--indep>"
210 msgid "Act on all architecture independent packages."
215 msgid "B<->I<ppackage>, B<--package=>I<package>"
221 "Act on the package named \"package\". This option may be specified multiple "
222 "times to make debhelper operate on a given set of packages."
227 msgid "B<-s>, B<--same-arch>"
233 "This is a smarter version of the -a flag, that is used in some rare "
234 "circumstances. It understands that if the control file lists \"Architecture: "
235 "i386\" for the package, the package should not be acted on on other "
236 "architectures. So this flag makes the command act on all \"Architecture: "
237 "any\" packages, as well as on any packages that have the current "
238 "architecture explicitly specified. Contrast to the -a flag, which makes the "
239 "command work on all packages that are not architecture independent."
244 msgid "B<-N>I<package>, B<--no-package=>I<package>"
250 "Do not act on the specified package even if an -a, -i, or -p option lists "
251 "the package as one that should be acted on."
256 msgid "B<--ignore=>I<file>"
262 "Ignore the specified file. This can be used if debian/ contains a debhelper "
263 "config file that a debhelper command should not act on. Note that "
264 "debian/compat, debian/control, and debian/changelog can't be ignored, but "
265 "then, there should never be a reason to ignore those files."
271 "For example, if upstream ships a debian/init that you don't want "
272 "dh_installinit to install, use --ignore=debian/init"
277 msgid "B<-P>I<tmpdir>, B<--tmpdir=>I<tmpdir>"
282 msgid "Use \"tmpdir\" for package build directory. The default is debian/<package>"
287 msgid "B<--mainpackage=>I<package>"
293 "This little-used option changes the package which debhelper considers the "

295 "one for which debian/foo files can be used instead of the usual "
296 "debian/package.foo files."

353 msgid "Multiple binary package support"
359 "If your source package generates more than one binary package, debhelper "
360 "programs will default to acting on all binary packages when run. If your "
361 "source package happens to generate one architecture dependent package, and "
362 "another architecture independent package, this is not the correct behavior, "
363 "because you need to generate the architecture dependent packages in the "
364 "binary-arch debian/rules target, and the architecture independent packages "
365 "in the binary-indep debian/rules target."
371 "To facilitate this, as well as give you more control over which packages are "
372 "acted on by debhelper programs, all debhelper programs accept the B<-a>, "
373 "B<-i>, B<-p>, and B<-s> parameters. These parameters are cumulative. If "
374 "none are given, debhelper programs default to acting on all packages listed "
375 "in the control file."
380 msgid "Automatic generation of debian install scripts"
386 "Some debhelper commands will automatically generate parts of debian "
387 "maintainer scripts. If you want these automatically generated things "
388 "included in your existing debian maintainer scripts, then you need to add "
389 "\"#DEBHELPER#\" to your scripts, in the place the code should be added. "
390 "\"#DEBHELPER#\" will be replaced by any auto-generated code when you run "
397 "If a script does not exist at all and debhelper needs to add something to "
398 "it, then debhelper will create the complete script."
404 "All debhelper commands that automatically generate code in this way let it "
405 "be disabled by the -n parameter (see above)."
411 "Note that the inserted code will be shell code, so you cannot directly use "
412 "it in a perl script. If you would like to embed it into a perl script, here "
413 "is one way to do that (note that I made sure that $1, $2, etc are set with "
421 " my $temp=\"set -e\\nset -- @ARGV\\n\" . << 'EOF';\n"
424 " system ($temp) / 256 == 0\n"
425 " \tor die \"Problem with debhelper scripts: $!\";\n"
431 msgid "Automatic generation of miscellaneous dependencies."
437 "Some debhelper commands may make the generated package need to depend on "
438 "some other packages. For example, if you use L<dh_installdebconf(1)>, your "
439 "package will generally need to depend on debconf. Or if you use "
440 "L<dh_installxfonts(1)>, your package will generally need to depend on a "
441 "particular version of xutils. Keeping track of these miscellaneous "
442 "dependencies can be annoying since they are dependant on how debhelper does "
443 "things, so debhelper offers a way to automate it."
449 "All commands of this type, besides documenting what dependencies may be "
450 "needed on their man pages, will automatically generate a substvar called "
451 "${misc:Depends}. If you put that token into your debian/control file, it "
452 "will be expanded to the dependencies debhelper figures you need."
458 "This is entirely independent of the standard ${shlibs:Depends} generated by "
459 "L<dh_makeshlibs(1)>, and the ${perl:Depends} generated by L<dh_perl(1)>. "
460 "You can choose not to use any of these, if debhelper's guesses don't match "
466 msgid "Package build directories"
472 "By default, all debhelper programs assume that the temporary directory used "
473 "for assembling the tree of files in a package is debian/<package>."
479 "Sometimes, you might want to use some other temporary directory. This is "
480 "supported by the -P flag. For example, \"dh_installdocs -Pdebian/tmp\", will "
481 "use debian/tmp as the temporary directory. Note that if you use -P, the "
482 "debhelper programs can only be acting on a single package at a time. So if "
483 "you have a package that builds many binary packages, you will need to also "
484 "use the -p flag to specify which binary package the debhelper program will "
490 msgid "Debhelper compatibility levels"
496 "From time to time, major non-backwards-compatible changes need to be made to "
497 "debhelper, to keep it clean and well-designed as needs change and its author "
498 "gains more experience. To prevent such major changes from breaking existing "
499 "packages, the concept of debhelper compatibility levels was introduced. You "
500 "tell debhelper which compatibility level it should use, and it modifies its "
501 "behavior in various ways."
507 "Tell debhelper what compatibility level to use by writing a number to "
508 "debian/compat. For example, to turn on V7 mode:"
515 " % echo 7 > debian/compat\n"
522 "Unless otherwise indicated, all debhelper documentation assumes that you are "
523 "using the most recent compatibility level, and in most cases does not "
524 "indicate if the behavior is different in an earlier compatibility level, so "
525 "if you are not using the most recent compatibility level, you're advised to "
526 "read below for notes about what is different in earlier compatibility "
532 msgid "These are the available compatibility levels:"
543 "This is the original debhelper compatibility level, and so it is the default "
544 "one. In this mode, debhelper will use debian/tmp as the package tree "

754 "Sometimes it is useful to make a package not contain a "
755 "/usr/share/doc/package directory at all, instead placing just a dangling "
756 "symlink in the binary package, that points to some other doc "
757 "directory. Policy says this is ok if your package depends on the package "
758 "whose doc directory it uses. To accomplish this, just don't tell debhelper "
759 "to install any documentation files into the package, and use dh_link to set "
760 "up the symlink (or do it by hand), and debhelper should do the right thing: "
761 "notice it is a dangling symlink and not try to install a copyright file or "
773 "Debhelper includes support for udebs. To create a udeb with debhelper, add "
774 "\"XC-Package-Type: udeb\" to the package's stanza in debian/control, and "
775 "build-depend on debhelper (>= 4.2). Debhelper will try to create udebs that "
776 "comply with debian-installer policy, by making the generated package files "
777 "end in \".udeb\", not installing any documentation into a udeb, skipping "
778 "over preinst, postrm, prerm, and config scripts, etc."
789 "In general, if any debhelper program needs a directory to exist under "
790 "debian/, it will create it. I haven't bothered to document this in all the "
791 "man pages, but for example, dh_installdeb knows to make "
792 "debian/<package>/DEBIAN/ before trying to put files there, dh_installmenu "
793 "knows you need a debian/<package>/usr/share/menu/ before installing the menu "
800 "Once your package uses debhelper to build, be sure to add debhelper to your "
801 "Build-Depends line in debian/control. You should build-depend on a version "
802 "of debhelper equal to (or greater than) the debhelper compatibility level "
803 "your package uses. So if your package used compatibility level 7:"

840 "overriding any value in debian/compat."
850 msgid "Set to 1 to enable no-act mode."
861 "Anything in this variable will be prepended to the command line arguments of "
862 "all debhelper commands. This is useful in some situations, for example, if "
863 "you need to pass -p to all debhelper commands that will be run. One good way "
