DH_GENCONTROL(1) Debhelper DH_GENCONTROL(1)NAME
dh_gencontrol - generate and install control file
SYNOPSIS
dh_gencontrol [debhelperoptions] [--params]
DESCRIPTION
dh_gencontrol is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating control files, and installing them into the DEBIAN directory with
the proper permissions.
This program is merely a wrapper around dpkg-gencontrol(1), which calls it once for each package being acted on (plus related dbgsym
packages), and passes in some additional useful flags.
Note that if you use dh_gencontrol, you must also use dh_builddeb(1) to build the packages. Otherwise, your build may fail to build as
dh_gencontrol (via dpkg-gencontrol(1)) declares which packages are built. As debhelper automatically generates dbgsym packages, it some
times adds additional packages, which will be built by dh_builddeb(1).
OPTIONS -- params
Pass params to dpkg-gencontrol(1).
-uparams, --dpkg-gencontrol-params=params
This is another way to pass params to dpkg-gencontrol(1). It is deprecated; use -- instead.
