<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
<B>dh_auto_install</B> is a debhelper program that tries to automatically install
|
||
built files. It does so by running the appropriate command for the build
|
||
system it detects the package uses. For example, if there's a <I>Makefile</I> and
|
||
it contains a <B>install</B> target, then this is done by running <B>make</B> (or <B></B><FONT SIZE="-1"><B>MAKE</B></FONT><B></B>,
|
||
if the environment variable is set). If there is a <I>setup.py</I> or <I>Build.PL</I>,
|
||
it is used. Note that the Ant build system does not support installation,
|
||
so <B>dh_auto_install</B> will not install files built using Ant.
|
||
<P>
|
||
|
||
Unless <B>--destdir</B> option is specified, the files are installed into
|
||
debian/<I>package</I>/ if there is only one binary package. In the multiple binary
|
||
package case, the files are instead installed into <I>debian/tmp/</I>, and should be
|
||
moved from there to the appropriate package build directory using
|
||
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?1+dh_install">dh_install</A></B>(1).
|
||
<P>
|
||
|
||
<B></B><FONT SIZE="-1"><B>DESTDIR</B></FONT><B></B> is used to tell make where to install the files.
|
||
If the Makefile was generated by MakeMaker from a <I>Makefile.PL</I>, it will
|
||
automatically set <B>PREFIX=/usr</B> too, since such Makefiles need that.
|
||
<P>
|
||
|
||
This is intended to work for about 90% of packages. If it doesn't work, or
|
||
tries to use the wrong install target, you're encouraged to skip using
|
||
<B>dh_auto_install</B> at all, and just run make install manually.

<H2>OPTIONS</H2>
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
See "<B></B><FONT SIZE="-1"><B>BUILD SYSTEM OPTIONS</B></FONT><B></B>" in <B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?7+debhelper">debhelper</A></B>(7) for a list of common build
|

system selection and control options.

<DL COMPACT>
|

<DT id="1"><B>--destdir=</B><I>directory</I><DD>
|
||
|
||
|
||
Install files into the specified <I>directory</I>. If this option is not specified,
|
||
destination directory is determined automatically as described in the
|
||
"<B></B><FONT SIZE="-1"><B>DESCRIPTION</B></FONT><B></B>" section.
|
||
<DT id="2"><B>--</B> <I>params</I><DD>
|
||
|
||
|
||
Pass <I>params</I> to the program that is run, after the parameters that
|
||
<B>dh_auto_install</B> usually passes.
