dh_installdirs – create subdirectories in package build directories
Synopsis
dh_installdirs [debhelper options] [-A] [dir …]Description
dh_installdirs is a debhelper program that is responsible for creating subdirectories in package build directories. Many packages can get away with omitting the call to dh_installdirs completely. Notably, other dh_* commands are expected to create directories as needed.
Files
- debian/package.dirs
- Lists directories to be created in package.
Generally, there is no need to list directories created by the upstream build system or directories needed by other debhelper commands.
Options
- -A, –all
- Create any directories specified by command line parameters in ALL packages acted on, not just the first.
- dir …
- Create these directories in the package build directory of the first package acted on. (Or in all packages if -A is specified.)
