DH_USRLOCAL(1) Debhelper DH_USRLOCAL(1)
dh_usrlocal - migrate usr/local directories to maintainer scripts
dh_usrlocal [debhelper options] [-n]
dh_usrlocal is a debhelper program that can be used for building
packages that will provide a subdirectory in /usr/local when
installed.
It finds subdirectories of usr/local in the package build directory,
and removes them, replacing them with maintainer script snippets
(unless -n is used) to create the directories at install time, and
remove them when the package is removed, in a manner compliant with
Debian policy. These snippets are inserted into the maintainer
scripts by dh_installdeb. See dh_installdeb(1) for an explanation of
debhelper maintainer script snippets.
When the Rules-Requires-Root field is not (effectively) binary-
targets, the directories in /usr/local will have ownership root:staff
and the mode will be 02775. These values have been chosen to comply
with the recommendations of the Debian policy for directories in
/usr/local.
When Rules-Requires-Root has an effective value of binary-targets,
the owners, groups and permissions will be preserved with one
exception. If the directory is owned by root:root, then ownership
will be reset to root:staff and mode will be reset to 02775. This is
useful, since that is the group and mode policy recommends for
directories in /usr/local.
-n, --no-scripts
Do not modify postinst/prerm scripts.
Note that this command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be called
between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple
instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.
Debian policy, version 2.2
