<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
<B>dh_perl</B> is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating
|
||
the <B>${perl:Depends}</B> substitutions and adding them to substvars files.
|
||
<P>
|
||
|
||
The program will look at Perl scripts and modules in your package,
|
||
and will use this information to generate a dependency on <B>perl</B> or
|
||
<B>perlapi</B>. The dependency will be substituted into your package's <I>control</I>
|
||
file wherever you place the token <B>${perl:Depends}</B>.
|
||
<P>
|
||
|
||
<B>dh_perl</B> also cleans up empty directories that MakeMaker can generate when
|
||
installing Perl modules.

<H2>OPTIONS</H2>

|
||
|
||
<DL COMPACT>
|
||
<DT id="1"><B>-d</B><DD>
|
||
|
||
|
||
In some specific cases you may want to depend on <B>perl-base</B> rather than the
|
||
full <B>perl</B> package. If so, you can pass the -d option to make <B>dh_perl</B> generate
|
||
a dependency on the correct base package. This is only necessary for some
|
||
packages that are included in the base system.
|
||
|
||
|
||
<P>
|
||
|
||
|
||
Note that this flag may cause no dependency on <B>perl-base</B> to be generated at
|
||
all. <B>perl-base</B> is Essential, so its dependency can be left out, unless a
|
||
versioned dependency is needed.
|
||
<DT id="2"><B>-V</B><DD>
|
||
|
||
|
||
By default, scripts and architecture independent modules don't depend
|
||
on any specific version of <B>perl</B>. The <B>-V</B> option causes the current
|
||
version of the <B>perl</B> (or <B>perl-base</B> with <B>-d</B>) package to be specified.
|
||
<DT id="3"><I>library dirs</I><DD>
|
||
|
||
|
||
If your package installs Perl modules in non-standard
|
||
directories, you can make <B>dh_perl</B> check those directories by passing their
|
||
names on the command line. It will only check the <I>vendorlib</I> and <I>vendorarch</I>
|
||
directories by default.
