You tell +it what man pages go in your packages, and it figures out where to +install them based on the section field in their .TH line. If you have a +properly formatted .TH line, your man page will be installed into the right +directory, with the right name (this includes proper handling of pages +with a subsection, like "3perl", which are placed in man3, and given an +extention of ".3perl"). If your .TH line is incorrect or missing, the program +may guess wrong based on the file extention. + +It also supports translated man pages, by looking for extensions +like .ll.8 and .ll_LL.8 + +If dh_installman seems to install a man page into the wrong section or with +the wrong extension, this is because the man page has the wrong section +listed in its .TH line. Edit the man page and correct the section, and +dh_installman will follow suit. See to L<man(7)> for details about the .TH +section. If dh_installman seems to install a man page into a directory +like /usr/share/man/pl/man1/, that is because your program has a +name like "foo.pl", and dh_installman assumes that means it is translated +into Polish. There is currently no support for resolving this ambiguity; +programs in debian should proably not have extensions like that anyway. + +Any man page filenames specified as parameters will be installed into the +first package dh_installman is told to act on. By default, this is the +first binary package in debian/control, but if you use -p, -i, or -a flags, +it will be the first package specified by those flags. + +Files named debian/package.manpages can list other man pages to be +installed. + +After the man page installation step, dh_installman will check to see if +any of the man pages in the temporary directories of any of the packages it +is acting on contain ".so" links. If so, it changes them to symlinks. + +=head1 OPTIONS + +=over 4 + +=item B<-A>, B<--all> + +Install all files specified by command line parameters in ALL packages +acted on. + +=item I<manpage ...> + +Install these man pages into the first package acted on.
