DH_INSTALLDEBCONF(1) Debhelper DH_INSTALLDEBCONF(1)
NAME
dh_installdebconf - install files used by debconf in package build directories
SYNOPSIS
dh_installdebconf [debhelper options] [-n] [-- params]
DESCRIPTION
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.
FILES
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.
OPTIONS
-n, --noscripts
Do not modify postrm script.
-- params
Pass the params to po2debconf.
SEE ALSO
