dh_installwm – register a window manager
Synopsis
dh_installwm [debhelper options] [-n] [–priority=n] [wm …]Description
dh_installwm is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating the postinst and prerm commands that register a window manager with update-alternatives(8). The window manager’s man page is also registered as a slave symlink (in v6 mode and up). It must be installed in usr/share/man/man1/ in the package build directory prior to calling dh_installwm. In compat 9 and earlier, the manpage was optional.Files
