!!DESCRIPTION |
| |
|
21 |
|
| |
|
22 |
|
| |
|
23 |
dh_installman is a debhelper program that handles installing |
| |
|
24 |
man pages into the correct locations in package build |
| |
|
25 |
directories. You tell it what man pages go in your packages, |
| |
|
26 |
and it figures out where to install them based on the |
| |
|
27 |
section field in their .TH line and their filename |
| |
|
28 |
extension. It also supports translated man pages, by looking |
| |
|
29 |
for extensions like .ll.8 and .ll_LL.8 |
| |
|
30 |
|
| |
|
31 |
|
| |
|
32 |
If dh_installman seems to install a man page into the wrong |
| |
|
33 |
section or with the wrong extension, this is because the man |
| |
|
34 |
page has the wrong section listed in its .TH line. Edit the |
| |
|
35 |
man page and correct the section, and dh_installman will |
| |
|
36 |
follow suit. See to man(7) for details about the .TH |
| |
|
37 |
section. If dh_installman seems to install a man page into a |
| |
|
38 |
directory like /usr/share/man/pl/man1/, that is because your |
| |
|
39 |
program has a name like ``foo.pl'', and dh_installman |
| |
|
40 |
assumes that means it is translated into Polish. There is |
| |
|
41 |
currently no support for resolving this ambiguity; programs |
| |
|
42 |
in debian should proably not have extensions like that |
| |
|
43 |
anyway. |
| |
|
44 |
|
| |
|
45 |
|
| |
|
46 |
Any man page filenames specified as parameters will be |
| |
|
47 |
installed into the first package dh_installman is told to |
| |
|
48 |
act on. By default, this is the first binary package in |
| |
|
49 |
debian/control, but if you use -p, -i, or -a flags, it will |
| |
|
50 |
be the first package specified by those flags. |
| |
|
51 |
|
| |
|
52 |
|
| |
|
53 |
Files named debian/package.manpages can list other man pages |
| |
|
54 |
to be installed. |
| |
|
55 |
|
| |
|
56 |
|
| |
|
57 |
After the man page installation step, dh_installman will |
| |
|
58 |
check to see if any of the man pages in the temporary |
| |
|
59 |
directories of any of the packages it is acting on contain |
| |
|
60 |
``.so'' links. If so, it changes them to |
| |
|
61 |
symlinks. |
| |

ALL packages acted on. |

''manpage ...'' |
| |
|
73 |
|
| |
|
74 |
|
| |
|
75 |
Install these man pages into the first package acted on. (Or |
| |
|
76 |
in all packages if -A is specified). |

!!NOTES |
| |
|

|
| |
|
79 |
|
| |
|
80 |
An older version of this program, |
| |
|
81 |
''dh_installmanpages''(1), is still used by some |
| |
|
82 |
packages, and so is still included in debhelper. It is, |
| |
|
83 |
however, deprecated, due to its counterintuitive and |
| |
|
84 |
inconsistent interface. Use this program |
| |
|
85 |
instead. |
