I currently use this construction to check whether a certain program is installed:
Code:
if [ ! -e `which sqlite3` ]; then
cd /usr/ports/databases/sqlite3 && make install clean
else
echo "sqlite already installed"
fi
Is this method recommended? Is this an effective method, ie sufficiently robust for other examples, such as gcc, php, perl etc? Are there any caveats to this? The snippet is run as part of a script as root.

SYNOPSIS
dh_bugfiles [-A] [debhelperoptions]
DESCRIPTION
dh_bugfiles is a debhelper program that is responsible for installing bug reporting customization files (bug scripts and/or bug control
files and/or presubj files) into package build directories.
FILES
debian/package.bug-script
This is the script to be run by the bug reporting program for generating a bug report template. This file is installed as
usr/share/bug/package in the package build directory if no other types of bug reporting customization files are going to be installed
for the package in question. Otherwise, this file is installed as usr/share/bug/package/script. Finally, the installed script is given
execute permissions.
debian/package.bug-control
It is the bug control file containing some directions for the bug reporting tool. This file is installed as
usr/share/bug/package/control in the package build directory.
debian/package.bug-presubj
The contents of this file are displayed to the user by the bug reporting tool before allowing the user to write a bug report on the
package to the Debian Bug Tracking System. This file is installed as usr/share/bug/package/presubj in the package build directory.
OPTIONS -A, --all
Install debian/bug-* files to ALL packages acted on when respective debian/package.bug-* files do not exist. Normally, debian/bug-*
will be installed to the first package only.
