dh_installchangelogs
DH_INSTALLCHANGELOGS(1) Debhelper DH_INSTALLCHANGELOGS(1)
NAME
dh_installchangelogs - install changelogs into package build directories
SYNOPSIS
dh_installchangelogs [debhelperoptions] [-k] [-Xitem] [upstream]
DESCRIPTION
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 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.
FILES
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.
OPTIONS
-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.
