dh_auto_install - automatically runs make install or similar

13.24.1ubuntu2                                     2025-02-11                                 DH_AUTO_INSTALL(1)

dh_auto_install is a debhelper program that tries to automatically install built files. It does so by
       running the appropriate command for the build system it detects the package uses. For example, if there's
       a Makefile and it contains a install target, then this is done by running make (or MAKE, if the
       environment variable is set). If there is a setup.py or Build.PL, it is used. Note that the Ant build
       system does not support installation, so dh_auto_install will not install files built using Ant.

       In compat 14 or later, dh_auto_install will use debian/tmp as the default --destdir and should be moved
       from there to the appropriate package build directory using dh_install(1) or similar tools. Though if the
       single-binary addon for dh(1) is activated, then it will pass an explicit --destdir=debian/package/ to
       dh_auto_install.

       For earlier compat levels then unless --destdir option is specified, the files are installed into
       debian/package/ if there is only one binary package. In the multiple binary package case, the files are
       instead installed into debian/tmp/, and should be moved from there to the appropriate package build
       directory using dh_install(1) or similar tools.

       DESTDIR is used to tell make where to install the files.  If the Makefile was generated by MakeMaker from
       a Makefile.PL, it will automatically set PREFIX=/usr too, since such Makefiles need that.

       This is intended to work for about 90% of packages. If it doesn't work, or tries to use the wrong install
       target, you're encouraged to skip using dh_auto_install at all, and just run make install manually.

       See "BUILDSYSTEMOPTIONS" in debhelper(7) for a list of common build system selection and control
       options.

       --destdir=directory
           Install files into the specified directory. If this option is not specified, destination directory is
           determined automatically as described in the "DESCRIPTION" section.

       --params
           Pass params to the program that is run, after the parameters that dh_auto_install usually passes.
