NAME
       dh_installxfonts - register X fonts

SYNOPSIS
       dh_installxfonts [debhelper options]

DESCRIPTION
       dh_installxfonts is a debhelper program that is responsi-
       ble for registering X fonts, so their corresponding
       fonts.dir, fonts.alias, and fonts.scale be rebuilt prop-
       erly at install time.

       Before calling this program, you should have installed any
       X fonts provided by your package into the appropriate
       location in the package build directory, and if you have
       fonts.alias or fonts.scale files, you should install them
       into the correct location under etc/X11/fonts in your
       package build directory.

       Your package should should depend on xutils (>= 4.0.3) so
       that the update-fonts-* commands are available. (This pro-
       gram adds that dependency to ${misc:Depends}.)

       This programt automatically generates the postinst and
       postrm commands needed to register X fonts.  See
       dh_installdeb(b) for an explanation of how this works.

NOTES
       See update-fonts-alias(s), update-fonts-scale(e), and
       update-fonts-dir(r) for more information about X font
       installation.

       See Debian policy, section 12.8.5. for details about doing
       fonts the Debian way.
