6 dpkg-checkbuilddeps - check build dependencies and conflicts

9 dpkg-checkbuilddeps [option...] [control-file]
10
12 This program checks the installed packages in the system against the
13 build dependencies and build conflicts listed in the control file. If
14 any are not met, it displays them and exits with a nonzero return code.
15
16 By default, debian/control is read, but an alternate control filename
17 may be specified on the command line.
18
20 --admindir=dir
21 Change the location of the dpkg database (since dpkg 1.14.0). The
22 default location is /var/lib/dpkg.
23
24 -A Ignore Build-Depends-Arch and Build-Conflicts-Arch lines (since
25 dpkg 1.16.4). Use when only arch-indep packages will be built, or
26 combine with -B when only a source package is to be built.
27
28 -B Ignore Build-Depends-Indep and Build-Conflicts-Indep lines. Use
29 when only arch-dep packages will be built, or combine with -A when
30 only a source package is to be built.
31
32 -I Ignore built-in build depends and conflicts (since dpkg 1.18.2).
33 These are implicit dependencies that are usually required on a
34 specific distribution, the so called Build-Essential package set.
35
36 -d build-depends-string
37 -c build-conflicts-string
38 Use the given build dependencies/conflicts instead of those
39 contained in the debian/control file (since dpkg 1.14.17).
40
41 -a arch
42 Check build dependencies/conflicts assuming that the package
43 described in the control file is to be built for the given host
44 architecture instead of the architecture of the current system
45 (since dpkg 1.16.2).
46
47 -P profile[,...]
48 Check build dependencies/conflicts assuming that the package
49 described in the control file is to be built for the given build
50 profile(s) (since dpkg 1.17.2). The argument is a comma-separated
51 list of profile names.
52
53 -?, --help
54 Show the usage message and exit.
55
56 --version
57 Show the version and exit.
58
60 DEB_BUILD_PROFILES
61 If set, it will be used as the active build profile(s) for the
62 package being built. It is a space separated list of profile names.
63 Overridden by the -P option.
64
65 DPKG_COLORS
66 Sets the color mode (since dpkg 1.18.5). The currently accepted
67 values are: auto (default), always and never.
68
69 DPKG_NLS
70 If set, it will be used to decide whether to activate Native
71 Language Support, also known as internationalization (or i18n)
72 support (since dpkg 1.19.0). The accepted values are: 0 and 1
73 (default).
