dh_auto_build - automatically builds a package
Contents
Description
dh_auto_build is a debhelper program that tries to automatically build a package. It does so by running
the appropriate command for the build system it detects the package uses. For example, if a Makefile is
found, this is done by running make (or MAKE, if the environment variable is set). If there's a setup.py,
or Build.PL, it is run to build the package.
This is intended to work for about 90% of packages. If it doesn't work, you're encouraged to skip using
dh_auto_build at all, and just run the build process manually.
