dh_ucf
DH_UCF(1) Debhelper DH_UCF(1)
NAME
dh_ucf - register configuration files with ucf
SYNOPSIS
dh_ucf [debhelperoptions] [-A] [-n] [file...]
DESCRIPTION
dh_ucf is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating the postinst and postrm commands that register files with ucf(1) and
ucfr(1).
FILES
debian/package.ucf
List pairs of source and destination files to register with ucf. Each pair should be put on its own line, with the source and
destination separated by whitespace. Both source and destination must be absolute paths. The source should be a file that is provided
by your package, typically in /usr/share/, while the destination is typically a file in /etc/.
A dependency on ucf will be generated in ${misc:Depends}.
OPTIONS
-A, --all
Install all files specified by command line parameters in ALL packages acted on.
-n, --no-scripts
Do not modify postinst/postrm scripts. Turns this command into a no-op.
file ...
Install these info files into the first package acted on. (Or in all packages if -A is specified).
NOTES
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.
SEE ALSO
debhelper(7)
This program is a part of debhelper.
