=head1 NAME

dh_perl - calculates perl dependencies and cleans up after MakeMaker

=cut

use strict;
use Config;
use File::Find;
use Debian::Debhelper::Dh_Lib;

=head1 SYNOPSIS

B<dh_perl> [S<I<debhelper options>>] [B<-d>] [S<I<library dirs ...>>]

=head1 DESCRIPTION

dh_perl is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating
the ${perl:Depends} substitutions and adding them to substvars files.

The program will look at perl scripts and modules in your package,
and will use this information to generate a dependency on perl or
perlapi. The dependency will be substituted into your package's control
file wherever you place the token "${perl:Depends}".

dh_perl also cleans up empty directories that MakeMaker can generate when
installing perl modules.

=head1 OPTIONS

=over 4

=item B<-d>

In some specific cases you may want to depend on perl-base rather than the
full perl package. If so, you can pass the -d option to make dh_perl generate
a dependency on the correct base package. This is only necessary for some
packages that are included in the base system.

Note that this flag may cause no dependency on perl-base to be generated at
all. perl-base is Essential, so its dependency can be left out, unless a
versioned dependency is needed.

=item B<-V>

By default, scripts and architecture independent modules don't depend
on any specific version of perl.  The -V option causes the current
version of the perl (or perl-base with -d) package to be specified.

=item I<library dirs>

If your package installs perl modules in non-standard
directories, you can make dh_perl check those directories by passing their
names on the command line. It will only check the vendorlib and vendorarch
directories by default.
