NAME

dh_installwm - register a window manager

SYNOPSIS

dh_installwm [''debhelper options''? [__-n__? [__--priority=__''n''? [''wm ...''?

DESCRIPTION

dh_installwm is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating the postinst and postrm commands that register a window manager with update-alternatives(8)

Any window manager programs specified as parameters will be registered in the first package dh_installwm is told to act on. By default, this is the first binary package in debian/control, but if you use -p, -i, or -a flags, it will be the first package specified by those flags.

Files named debian/package.wm can list other window manager programs to register.

OPTIONS

--priority=n

Set the priority of the window manager. Default is 20, which is too low for most window managers; see the Debian Policy document for instructions on calculating the correct value.

-n, --noscripts

Do not modify postinst/postrm scripts. Turns this command into a no-op.

wm ...

The commands used to run the window manager or window managers you want to register.

NOTES

Note that this command is not idempotent. ``dh_clean -k'' should be called between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.

SEE ALSO

debhelper(1)

This program is a part of debhelper.
