You can also prefix the filenames the same way for the first +binary package, for consitency.) +.P +The files postinst, preinst, postrm, and prerm are handled specially: If a +corresponding file named debian/script.debhelper exists, the contents of that +file are merged into the script as follows: If the script exists, then +anywhere in it that "#DEBHELPER#" appears, the text of the .debhelper file is +inserted. If the script does not exist, then a script is generated from +the .debhelper file. The .debhelper files are created by other debhelper +programs, such as +.BR dh_installmenu (1) +, and are shell script fragments. +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +.B debhelper options +See +.BR debhelper (1) +for a list of options common to all debhelper commands. +.SH ENVIRONMENT +See +.BR debhelper (1) +for a list of environment variables that affect all debhelper commands. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR debhelper (1) +.SH "CONFORMS TO" +Debian policy, version 2.5.0.0 +.SH AUTHOR +Joey Hess <joeyh@master.debian.org> |
