<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This document contains the upgrade guidelines from all compat levels
|
|
which are no longer supported. Accordingly it is mostly for
|
|
historical purposes and to assist people upgrading from a
|
|
non-supported compat level to a supported level.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
For upgrades from supported compat levels, please see <B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?7+debhelper">debhelper</A></B>(7).

|
|
<H2>UPGRADE LIST FOR COMPAT LEVELS</H2>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following is the list of now obsolete compat levels and their
|
|
changes.
|
|
<DL COMPACT>
|
|
<DT id="1">v1<DD>
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is the original debhelper compatibility level, and so it is the default
|
|
one. In this mode, debhelper will use <I>debian/tmp</I> as the package tree
|
|
directory for the first binary package listed in the control file, while using
|
|
debian/<I>package</I> for all other packages listed in the <I>control</I> file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
|
This mode is deprecated.
|
|
<DT id="2">v2<DD>
|
|
|
|
|
|
In this mode, debhelper will consistently use debian/<I>package</I>
|
|
as the package tree directory for every package that is built.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
|
This mode is deprecated.
|
|
<DT id="3">v3<DD>
|
|
|
|
|
|
This mode works like v2, with the following additions:
|
|
<DL COMPACT><DT id="4"><DD>
|
|
<DL COMPACT>
|
|
<DT id="5">-<DD>
|
|
Debhelper config files support globbing via <B>*</B> and <B>?</B>, when appropriate. To
|
|
turn this off and use those characters raw, just prefix with a backslash.
|
|
<DT id="6">-<DD>
|
|
<B>dh_makeshlibs</B> makes the <I>postinst</I> and <I>postrm</I> scripts call <B>ldconfig</B>.
|
|
<DT id="7">-<DD>
|
|
Every file in <I>etc/</I> is automatically flagged as a conffile by <B>dh_installdeb</B>.
|
|
</DL>
|
|
</DL>
|
|
|
|
<DL COMPACT><DT id="8"><DD>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P>

|
This mode is deprecated.

|
|
<DT id="12">-<DD>
|
|
You are encouraged to put the new <B>${misc:Depends}</B> into <I>debian/control</I> to
|
|
supplement the <B>${shlibs:Depends}</B> field.
|
|
<DT id="13">-<DD>
|
|
<B>dh_fixperms</B> will make all files in <I>bin/</I> directories and in <I>etc/init.d</I>
|
|
executable.
|
|
<DT id="14">-<DD>
|
|
<B>dh_link</B> will correct existing links to conform with policy.
