10 opts lintian options]
11
13 cvs-debuild is a wrapper around cvs-buildpackage to run it with debuild
14 as the package-building program. (This cannot simply be accomplished
15 using the -C option of cvs-buildpackage, as it does not know how to
16 handle all of the special debuild options.)
17
18 The program simply stashes the debuild and lintian options, and passes
19 them to debuild when it is called by cvs-buildpackage. All of the
20 standard debuild options may be used (as listed below), but note that
21 the root command specified by any --rootcmd or -r command-line option
22 will be passed as an option to cvs-buildpackage. The first non-debuild
23 option detected will signal the start of the cvs-buildpackage options.
24
25 The selection of the root command is slightly subtle: if there are any
26 command-line options, these will be used. If not, then if cvs-build‐
27 package is set up to use a default root command, that will be used.
28 Finally, if neither of these are the case, then debuild will use its
29 procedures to determine an appropriate command, as described in its
30 documentation.
31
32 See the manpages for debuild(1) and cvs-buildpackage for more informa‐
33 tion about the behaviour of each.
34
36 The following are the debuild options recognised by cvs-debuild. All
37 cvs-buildpackage and lintian options are simply passed to the appropri‐
38 ate program. For explanations of the meanings of these variables, see
39 debuild(1).
