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.
