NAME

       dh_girepository - compute dependencies for GObject introspection packages

SYNOPSIS

       dh_girepository [debhelper options] [-ldirectory] [-pdirectory] [-Xitem] [private [...]]

DESCRIPTION

       dh_girepository is a debhelper program to compute dependencies for packages shipping GObject introspection data.

       The dependencies are generated in the ${gir:Depends} substitution variable.

OPTIONS

       -ldirectory
	   Specify a directory (or a colon-separated list of directories) where to look for the .gir XML files that were used to generate the
	   .typelib files that are scanned. This option is only necessary if those files are not shipped in another, architecture-dependent
	   package.

       -pdirectory
	   Specify a directory (or a colon-separated list of directories) where to look for the dependencies. This is useful when a dependency
	   ships the .typelib in a private directory.

       -Xitem
	   Exclude files that contain item anywhere in their filename from being analyzed.

       private [...] List of directories where to look for typelibs and the corresponding .gir files. Useful when the package installs its
       typelibs in a private directory, such as /usr/lib/<package>. Library dependencies are also looked there, in case your typelib depends on a
       library that you ship on a private directory.

CONFORMS TO

       GObject introspection mini policy as of 2010-12-07.
