dh_compress
NAME
dh_compress - compress files and fix symlinks in package build directories
SYNOPSIS
dh_compress [debhelper options] [-Xitem] [-A] [file ...]
DESCRIPTION
dh_compress is a debhelper program that is responsible for compressing
the files in package build directories, and makes sure that any symlinks
that pointed to the files before they were compressed are updated to point
to the new files.
By default, dh_compress compresses files that debian policy mandates should
be compressed, namely all files in usr/share/info, usr/share/man,
usr/X11R6/man, files in usr/share/doc that are larger than 4k in size,
(except the copyright file, .html and .css files, and files that appear to be
already compressed based on their extensions), and all changelog files. Plus
\s-1PCF\s0 fonts underneath usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/ and usr/share/fonts/X11/
If a debian/package.compress file exists, however, it will be ran as a shell
script, and all filenames that the shell script outputs will be compressed
instead of the default files. The shell script will be run from
inside the package build directory. Note though that using -X is a much
better idea in general; you should only use a debian/package.compress file
if you really have to.
OPTIONS
"-Xitem,
Exclude files that contain “item” anywhere in their filename from being
compressed. For example, -X.jpeg will exclude jpeg files from compression.
You may use this option multiple times to build up a list of things to
exclude. You can accomplish the same thing by using a debian/compress file,
but this is easier.
"-A,
Compress all files specified by command line parameters in \s-1ALL\s0 packages
acted on.
"file
Add these files to the list of files to compress.
CONFORMS TO
Debian policy, version 3.0
