DH_PERL(1) Debhelper DH_PERL(1)
dh_perl - calculates Perl dependencies and cleans up after
MakeMaker
dh_perl [debhelper options] [-d] [library dirs ...]
dh_perl is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating
the ${perl:Depends} substitutions and adding them to substvars
files.
The program will look at Perl scripts and modules in your
package, and will use this information to generate a dependency
on perl or perlapi. The dependency will be substituted into your
package's control file wherever you place the token
${perl:Depends}.
dh_perl also cleans up empty directories that MakeMaker can
generate when installing Perl modules.
-d In some specific cases you may want to depend on perl-base
rather than the full perl package. If so, you can pass the -d
option to make dh_perl generate a dependency on the correct
base package. This is only necessary for some packages that
are included in the base system.
Note that this flag may cause no dependency on perl-base to
be generated at all. perl-base is Essential, so its
dependency can be left out, unless a versioned dependency is
needed.
-V By default, scripts and architecture independent modules
don't depend on any specific version of perl. The -V option
causes the current version of the perl (or perl-base with -d)
package to be specified.
library dirs
If your package installs Perl modules in non-standard
directories, you can make dh_perl check those directories by
passing their names on the command line. It will only check
the vendorlib and vendorarch directories by default.
