dh_installtmpfiles - install tmpfiles.d configuration files

dh_installtmpfiles is a debhelper program that is responsible for installing package maintainer supplied
       tmpfiles.d configuration files (e.g. for systemd-tmpfiles).

       It also finds the tmpfiles.d configuration files installed by a package and generates postinst code
       blocks for activating the tmpfiles.d configuration when the package is installed. These snippets are
       added to the maintainer scripts by dh_installdeb(1).

       In compat 14+, tmpfiles.d files are copied into the postrm script, and they are used with systemd-
       tmpfiles --remove after the package is removed and --purge when the package is purged. This allows one to
       use the tmpfiles.d mechanism to clean up files that are no longer needed after a package has been
       removed/purged.

       debian/package.tmpfiles
           If  this  exists,  it is installed into usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/ in the package build directory. Note that
           the "tmpfiles.d" mechanism is currently only used by systemd.

       debian/package.tmpfile
           Deprecated name for debian/package.tmpfiles.

       dh_installtmpfiles - install tmpfiles.d configuration files

       This command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be called between invocations of this command (with the
       same arguments). Otherwise, it may cause multiple instances of the same text to be  added  to  maintainer
       scripts.

--name=name
           This  option  controls both a prefix used for looking up maintainer provided tmpfiles.d configuration
           files (those mentioned in the "FILES" section) and also the base name used for the installed  version
           of the file.
