It -skips any files that appear to be already compressed (based on their -extentions). -.P -If a debian/package.compress file exists (debian/compress may be used for the -first binary package in debian/control), however, it will be ran as a shell -script, and all filenames that the shell script outputs will be compressed -instead of the default files. Note that the shell script will be run from -inside the package build directory. -.SH EXAMPLE -Here is a sample debian/compress file that causes dh_compress to compress -the same files as it would by default. This is a good starting point for -customization of what files are compressed: -.PP - find usr/info usr/share/info usr/man usr/share/man usr/X11*/man -type f - find usr/doc usr/share/doc -type f \\ - \\( -size +4k -or -name "changelog*" \\) \\ - \\( -name changelog.html -or ! -name "*.htm*" \\) \\ - ! -name "*.gif" ! -iname "*.gz" \\ - ! -iname "*.taz" ! -iname "*.tgz" ! -iname "*.z" \\ - ! -name "copyright" -.SH OPTIONS -.TP -.B debhelper options -See -.BR debhelper (1) -for a list of options common to all debhelper commands. -.TP -.B \-Xitem, \--exclude=item -Exclude files that contain "item" anywhere in their filename from being -compressed. For example, -X.jpeg will exclude jpeg's from compression. -You may use this option multiple times to build up a list of things to -exclude. You can accomplish the same thing by using a debian/compress file, -but this is easier. -.TP -.B \-A, \--all -Compress all files specified by command line parameters in ALL packages -acted on. -.TP -.B file ... -Add these files to the list of files to compress. -.SH NOTES -The debian/compress file applies to the first binary package listed in your -control file. For the other packages, you can make files named -debian/package.compress, where "package" is the name of the package they -apply to. (This works for the first binary package too.) -.SH ENVIRONMENT -See -.BR debhelper (1) -for a list of environment variables that affect all debhelper commands. -.SH "SEE ALSO" -.BR debhelper (1) -.SH BUGS -Filenames with spaces in them may not properly be compressed. -.SH "CONFORMS TO" -Debian policy, version 3.0.0.0 -.SH AUTHOR -Joey Hess <joeyh@master.debian.org> |
