dh_installemacsen – register an Emacs add on package
Synopsis
dh_installemacsen [debhelperĀ options] [-n] [–priority=n] [–flavor=foo]Description
dh_installemacsen is a debhelper program that is responsible for installing files used by the Debian emacsen-common package into package build directories. It also automatically generates the preinst postinst and prerm commands needed to register a package as an Emacs add on package. The commands are added to the maintainer scripts by dh_installdeb. See dh_installdeb(1) for an explanation of how this works.
Files
- debian/package.emacsen-compat
- Installed into usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/compat/package in the package build directory.
- debian/package.emacsen-install
- Installed into usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/install/package in the package build directory.
- debian/package.emacsen-remove
- Installed into usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/remove/package in the package build directory.
- debian/package.emacsen-startup
- Installed into etc/emacs/site-start.d/50package.el in the package build directory. Use –priority to use a different priority than 50.
Options
- -n, –no-scripts
- Do not modify postinst/prerm scripts.
- –priority=n
- Sets the priority number of a site-start.d file. Default is 50.
- –flavor=foo
- Sets the flavor a site-start.d file will be installed in. Default is emacs, alternatives include xemacs and emacs20.
Notes
Note that this command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be called between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.See Also
