dh_gencontrol - generate and install control file

13.24.1ubuntu2                                     2025-02-11                                   DH_GENCONTROL(1)

dh_gencontrol is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating control files, and installing
       them into the DEBIAN directory with the proper permissions.

       This program is merely a wrapper around dpkg-gencontrol(1), which calls it once for each package being
       acted on (plus related dbgsym packages), and passes in some additional useful flags.

       Note that if you use dh_gencontrol, you must also use dh_builddeb(1) to build the packages.  Otherwise,
       your build may fail to build as dh_gencontrol (via dpkg-gencontrol(1)) declares which packages are built.
       As debhelper automatically generates dbgsym packages, it some times adds additional packages, which will
       be built by dh_builddeb(1).

--params
           Pass params to dpkg-gencontrol(1).

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