DH_INSTALLDEBCONF(1) Debhelper DH_INSTALLDEBCONF(1)
dh_installdebconf - install files used by debconf in package
build directories
dh_installdebconf [debhelper options] [-n] [-- params]
dh_installdebconf is a debhelper program that is responsible for
installing files used by debconf into package build directories.
It also automatically generates the postrm commands needed to
interface with debconf. The commands are added to the maintainer
scripts by dh_installdeb. See dh_installdeb(1) for an explanation
of how that works.
Note that if you use debconf, your package probably needs to
depend on it (it will be added to ${misc:Depends} by this
program).
Note that for your config script to be called by dpkg, your
postinst needs to source debconf's confmodule. dh_installdebconf
does not install this statement into the postinst automatically
as it is too hard to do it right.
debian/package.config
This is the debconf config script, and is installed into the
DEBIAN directory in the package build directory.
Inside the script, the token #DEBHELPER# is replaced with
shell script snippets generated by other debhelper commands.
debian/package.templates
This is the debconf templates file, and is installed into the
DEBIAN directory in the package build directory.
debian/po/
If this directory is present, this program will automatically
use po2debconf(1) to generate merged templates files that
include the translations from there.
For this to work, your package should build-depend on po-
debconf.
-n, --no-scripts
Do not modify postrm script.
-- params
Pass the params to po2debconf.
debhelper(7)
This program is a part of debhelper.
