dh_dpatch_patch (1)

dh_dpatch_patch [debhelper options]

dh_dpatch_patch simply calls dpatch apply-all . All patches listed in debian/patches/00list are then applied in the current directory. The command does not fail if the patches have already been applied.

dh_dpatch_patch is usually called indirectly in a rules file via the dh command.

        %:
                dh --with dpatch $@

It can also be direcly called at the start of the build (or configure) rule.

build: dh_dpatch_patch ./configure $(MAKE)

debhelper\|(7), dh\|(1).

This program is meant to be used together with debhelper.
