+.SH NAME
+dh_installmenu \- install debian menu files into package build directories
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B dh_installmenu
+.I "[debhelper options] [-n]"
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+dh_installmenu is a debhelper program that is responsible for installing
+files used by the debian menu package into package build directories.
+.P
+It also automatically generates the postinst and postrm commands needed to
+interface with the debian menu package. See
+.BR dh_installdeb (1)
+for an explanation of how this works.
+.P
+If a file named debian/package.menu exists, then it is installed into
+usr/lib/menu/package in the package build directory. This is a debian menu
+file.
+.P
+If a file named debian/package.menu-method exits, then it is installed into
+etc/menu-methods/package in the package build directory. This is a debian
+menu method file.
+.P
+For the first first binary package listed in the control file, you may use
+debian/menu and debian/menu-method instead.
