NAME

6       dh_builddeb - build Debian binary packages
7

SYNOPSIS

9       dh_builddeb [debhelper options] [--destdir=directory] [--filename=name]
10       [-- params]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       dh_builddeb simply calls dpkg-deb(1) to build a Debian package or
14       packages.  It will also build dbgsym packages when dh_strip(1) and
15       dh_gencontrol(1) have prepared them.
16
17       It supports building multiple binary packages in parallel, when enabled
18       by DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS.
19
20       When the Rules-Requires-Root field is not (effectively) binary-targets,
21       dh_builddeb will pass --root-owner-group to dpkg-deb(1).
22

OPTIONS

24       --destdir=directory
25           Use this if you want the generated .deb files to be put in a
26           directory other than the default of "..".
27
28       --filename=name
29           Use this if you want to force the generated .deb file to have a
30           particular file name. Does not work well if more than one .deb is
31           generated!
32
33       -- params
34           Pass params to dpkg-deb(1) when it is used to build the package.
35
36       -uparams
37           This is another way to pass params to dpkg-deb(1).  It is
38           deprecated; use -- instead.
