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.
