dh_builddeb1
Build debian binary packages
Usage
dh_builddeb [debhelper
options]
[--destdir=directory]
[--filename=name]
[--
params]
Overview
dh_builddeb simply calls dpkg-deb(1) to build a Debian package or packages. It will also build dbgsym packages when dh_strip(1) and dh_gencontrol(1) have prepared them.
It supports building multiple binary packages in parallel, when enabled by DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS.
When the Rules-Requires-Root field is not (effectively) binary-targets, dh_builddeb will pass --root-owner-group to dpkg-deb(1).
Options
-
--destdir=directory -
Use this if you want the generated .deb files to be put in a directory other than the default of "..".
-
--filename=name -
Use this if you want to force the generated .deb file to have a particular file name. Does not work well if more than one .deb is generated!
-
-- params -
Pass params to dpkg-deb(1) when it is used to build the package.
-
-uparams -
This is another way to pass params to dpkg-deb(1). It is deprecated; use
--instead.
