DH_INSTALLEXAMPLES(1) Debhelper DH_INSTALLEXAMPLES(1)
dh_installexamples - install example files into package build
directories
dh_installexamples [debhelper options] [-A] [-Xitem] [file ...]
dh_installexamples is a debhelper program that is responsible for
installing examples into usr/share/doc/package/examples in package
build directories.
debian/package.examples
Lists example files or directories to be installed.
-A, --all
Install any files specified by command line parameters in ALL
packages acted on.
--sourcedir=dir
Look in the specified directory for files to be installed. This
option requires compat 11 or later (it is silently ignored in
compat 10 or earlier).
Note that this is not the same as the --sourcedirectory option
used by the dh_auto_* commands. You rarely need to use this
option, since dh_installexamples automatically looks for files in
debian/tmp in debhelper compatibility level 11 and above.
--doc-main-package=main-package
Set the main package for a documentation package. This is used
to install the documentation of the documentation package in
/usr/share/doc/main-package as recommended by the Debian policy
manual 3.9.7 in §12.3.
In compat 11 (or later), this option is only useful if
debhelper's auto-detection of the main package is wrong. The
option can also be used to silence a warning from debhelper when
the auto-detection fails but the default happens to be correct.
This option cannot be used when dh_installexamples is instructed
to act on multiple packages. If you need this option, you will
generally need to combine it with -p to ensure exactly one
package is acted on.
-Xitem, --exclude=item
Exclude files that contain item anywhere in their filename from
being installed.
file ...
Install these files (or directories) as examples into the first
package acted on. (Or into all packages if -A is specified.)
Note that dh_installexamples will happily copy entire directory
hierarchies if you ask it to (similar to cp -a). If it is asked to
install a directory, it will install the complete contents of the
directory.
