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, and passes in some additional
useful flags.
OPTIONS
- -- params
- Pass "params" to dpkg-gencontrol(1).
- -uparams, --dpkg-gencontrol-params=params
- This is another way to pass params to dpkg-deb(1). It is deprecated; use -- instead.
SEE ALSO
This program is a part of debhelper.
