DH_AUTO_INSTALL(1) Debhelper DH_AUTO_INSTALL(1)NAMEdh_auto_install - automatically runs make install or similarSYNOPSISdh_auto_install [buildsystemoptions] [debhelperoptions] [--params]DESCRIPTIONdh_auto_install is a debhelper program that tries to automatically install built files. It does so by running the appropriate command for the build system it detects the package uses. For example, if there's a Makefile and it contains a install target, then this is done by running make (or MAKE, if the environment variable is set). If there is a setup.py or Build.PL, it is used. Note that the Ant build system does not support installation, so dh_auto_install will not install files built using Ant. Unless --destdir option is specified, the files are installed into debian/package/ if there is only one binary package. In the multiple binary package case, the files are instead installed into debian/tmp/, and should be moved from there to the appropriate package build directory using dh_install(1). DESTDIR is used to tell make where to install the files. If the Makefile was generated by MakeMaker from a Makefile.PL, it will automatically set PREFIX=/usr too, since such Makefiles need that. This is intended to work for about 90% of packages. If it doesn't work, or tries to use the wrong install target, you're encouraged to skip using dh_auto_install at all, and just run make install manually.OPTIONSSee "BUILD SYSTEM OPTIONS" in debhelper(7) for a list of common build system selection and control options. --destdir=directory Install files into the specified directory. If this option is not specified, destination directory is determined automatically as described in the "DESCRIPTION" section. -- params Pass params to the program that is run. These can be used to supplement or override the any standard parameters that dh_auto_install passes.SEE ALSOdebhelper(7) This program is a part of debhelper.AUTHORJoey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> 8.9.0ubuntu2.1 2012-06-12 DH_AUTO_INSTALL(1)
