DH_INSTALLCHANGELOGS(1) Debhelper DH_INSTALLCHANGELOGS(1)
dh_installchangelogs - install changelogs into package build
directories
dh_installchangelogs [debhelper options] [-k] [-Xitem] [upstream]
dh_installchangelogs is a debhelper program that is responsible for
installing changelogs into package build directories.
An upstream changelog file may be specified as an option. If none is
specified, it looks for files with names that seem likely to be
changelogs. (In compatibility level 7 and above.)
If there is an upstream changelog file, it will be installed as
usr/share/doc/package/changelog in the package build directory.
If the upstream changelog is an html file (determined by file
extension), it will be installed as
usr/share/doc/package/changelog.html instead. If the html changelog
is converted to plain text, that variant can be specified as a second
upstream changelog file. When no plain text variant is specified, a
short usr/share/doc/package/changelog is generated, pointing readers
at the html changelog file.
debian/changelog
debian/NEWS
debian/package.changelog
debian/package.NEWS
Automatically installed into usr/share/doc/package/ in the
package build directory.
Use the package specific name if package needs a different NEWS
or changelog file.
The changelog file is installed with a name of changelog for
native packages, and changelog.Debian for non-native packages.
The NEWS file is always installed with a name of NEWS.Debian.
-k, --keep
Keep the original name of the upstream changelog. This will be
accomplished by installing the upstream changelog as changelog,
and making a symlink from that to the original name of the
changelog file. This can be useful if the upstream changelog has
an unusual name, or if other documentation in the package refers
to the changelog file.
-Xitem, --exclude=item
Exclude upstream changelog files that contain item anywhere in
their filename from being installed.
upstream
Install this file as the upstream changelog.
