dh_builddeb - build Debian binary packages

Author

       Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>

13.24.1ubuntu2                                     2025-02-11                                     DH_BUILDDEB(1)

Description

dh_builddeb simply calls dpkg-deb(1) to build a Debian package or packages.  It will also build dbgsym
       packages when dh_strip(1) and dh_gencontrol(1) have prepared them.

       It supports building multiple binary packages in parallel, when enabled by DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS.

       When the Rules-Requires-Root field is not (effectively) binary-targets, dh_builddeb will pass
       --root-owner-group to dpkg-deb(1).

Name

       dh_builddeb - build Debian binary packages

Options

--destdir=directory
           Use  this  if  you  want  the generated .deb files to be put in a directory other than the default of
           "..".

       --filename=name
           Use this if you want to force the generated .deb file to have a particular file name. Does  not  work
           well if more than one .deb is generated!

       --params
           Pass params to dpkg-deb(1) when it is used to build the package.

       -uparams
           This is another way to pass params to dpkg-deb(1).  It is deprecated; use -- instead.
