DH_CLIGACPOLICY(1)
NAME
dh_cligacpolicy - creates and installs a CLI policy file for a package
SYNOPSIS
dh_cligacpolicy [debhelper options] [-n]
DESCRIPTION
dh_cligacpolicy is a debhelper program that is responsible for
creating, compiling, and installing policy files for a Debian package.
This automatically includes postinst and prerm commands needed to
install these policies into the system.
OPTIONS
- -n, --noscripts
- Do not modify postinst/prerm scripts.
FILE FORMAT
This file uses the debian/cligacpolicy files (either policyassemblies
or debian/packagename.cligacpolicy) to generate the policy file. It
supports multiple versions of the policy, including mapping multiple
versions to a single file.
The file format of the cligacpolicy file consists of five properties
per line, each one separated by whitespace.
Assembly is the name of the assembly, without the .dll =extension. For
example, for log4net.dll, use log4net.
Version Range can be a single four-part version, such as =1.2.3.4, or a
full range, such as 1.2.3.4-1.2.6.7. For a single line, =the first two
numbers must be identical. To have an assembly apply to =multiple
versions, such as 1.2.0.0 to 2.4.0.0, there needs to be one =line for
each version range.
Assembly version is the version of the assembly being =built.
Priority defines the priority of the policy files. =Typically, each
version will increase the priority and =contains all the policy
controls for prior versions.
The fields can be separated with spaces or tabs. Comments start the
line with # characters and blank lines are ignored.
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.
EXAMPLE
For the log4net 1.2.10.0 version, a policy file is used to map all
versions from 1.2.8.0 to 1.2.9.99 into the current version.
debian/log4net.snk log4net 1.2.8.0-1.2.9.99 1.2.10.0 10
