12 dh_prep is a debhelper program that performs some file cleanups in
13 preparation for building a binary package. (This is what dh_clean -k
14 used to do.) It removes the package build directories, debian/tmp, and
15 some temp files that are generated when building a binary package.

17 It is typically run at the top of the binary-arch and binary-indep
18 targets, or at the top of a target such as install that they depend on.
