NAME

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

FILES

package.postinst

package.preinst

package.postrm

package.prerm

These maintainer scripts are installed into the

DEBIAN

directory.

Inside the scripts, the token #DEBHELPER# is replaced with shell script snippets generated by other debhelper commands.

package.triggers

package.shlibs

These control files are installed into the

DEBIAN

directory.

Note that package.shlibs is only installed in compat level 9 and earlier. In compat 10, please use dh_makeshlibs(1).

package.conffiles

This control file will be installed into the

DEBIAN

directory.

In v3 compatibility mode and higher, all files in the etc/ directory in a package will automatically be flagged as conffiles by this program, so there is no need to list them manually here.

package.maintscript

Lines in this file correspond to dpkg-maintscript-helper(1) commands and parameters. Any shell metacharacters will be escaped, so arbitrary shell code cannot be inserted here. For example, a line such as "mv_conffile /etc/oldconffile /etc/newconffile" will insert maintainer script snippets into all maintainer scripts sufficient to move that conffile.

SEE ALSO

This program is a part of debhelper.
