dh_auto_configure - automatically configure a package prior to building

Author

       Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>

13.24.1ubuntu2                                     2025-02-11                               DH_AUTO_CONFIGURE(1)

Description

dh_auto_configure is a debhelper program that tries to automatically configure a package prior to
       building. It does so by running the appropriate command for the build system it detects the package uses.
       For example, it looks for and runs a ./configure script, Makefile.PL, Build.PL, or cmake. A standard set
       of parameters is determined and passed to the program that is run. Some build systems, such as make, do
       not need a configure step; for these dh_auto_configure will exit without doing anything.

       This is intended to work for about 90% of packages. If it doesn't work, you're encouraged to skip using
       dh_auto_configure at all, and just run ./configure or its equivalent manually.

Name

       dh_auto_configure - automatically configure a package prior to building

Options

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

       --params
           Pass  params  to the program that is run, after the parameters that dh_auto_configure usually passes.
           For example:

             dh_auto_configure -- --with-foo --enable-bar
