DH_BUILDDEB(1) Debhelper DH_BUILDDEB(1)
dh_builddeb - build Debian binary packages
dh_builddeb [debhelper options] [--destdir=directory]
[--filename=name] [-- params]
dh_builddeb simply calls dpkg-deb(1) to build a Debian package or
packages. It will also build dbgsym packages when dh_strip(1) and
dh_gencontrol(1) have prepared them.
It supports building multiple binary packages in parallel, when
enabled by DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS.
When the Rules-Requires-Root field is not (effectively) binary-
targets, dh_builddeb will pass --root-owner-group to dpkg-deb(1).
--destdir=directory
Use this if you want the generated .deb files to be put in a
directory other than the default of "..".
--filename=name
Use this if you want to force the generated .deb file to have
a particular file name. Does not work well if more than one
.deb is generated!
-- params
Pass params to dpkg-deb(1) when it is used to build the
package.
-uparams
This is another way to pass params to dpkg-deb(1). It is
deprecated; use -- instead.
debhelper(7)
This program is a part of debhelper.
