NAME

6       dh_installwm - register a window manager
7

SYNOPSIS

9       dh_installwm [debhelper options] [-n] [--priority=n] [wm ...]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       dh_installwm is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating
13       the postinst and prerm commands that register a window manager with
14       update-alternatives(8). The window manager's man page is also
15       registered as a slave symlink (in v6 mode and up).  It must be
16       installed in usr/share/man/man1/ in the package build directory prior
17       to calling dh_installwm.  In compat 9 and earlier, the manpage was
18       optional.

FILES

21       debian/package.wm
22           List window manager programs to register.
23
24           Supports substitution variables in compat 13 and later as
25           documented in debhelper(7).
26

OPTIONS

28       --priority=n
29           Set the priority of the window manager. Default is 20, which is too
30           low for most window managers; see the Debian Policy document for
31           instructions on calculating the correct value.
32
33       -n, --no-scripts
34           Do not modify postinst/prerm scripts. Turns this command into a no-
35           op.
36
37       -A, --all
38           Modify scripts for window managers specified by command line
39           parameters in ALL packages acted on, not just the first.
40
41       wm ...
42           Window manager programs to register.
43

NOTES

45       Note that this command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be called
46       between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple
47       instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.
