dh_installcatalogs — install and register SGML Catalogs
Synopsis
dh_installcatalogs [debhelper options] [-n]
Description
dh_installcatalogs is a debhelper program that installs and registers SGML catalogs. It complies with the Debian XML/SGML policy.
Catalogs will be registered in a supercatalog, in /etc/sgml/package.cat.
This command automatically adds maintainer script snippets for registering and unregistering the catalogs and supercatalogs (unless -n is used). These snippets are inserted into the maintainer scripts and the triggers file by dh_installdeb; see dh_installdeb(1) for an explanation of Debhelper maintainer script snippets.
A dependency on sgml-base will be added to ${misc:Depends}, so be sure your package uses that variable in debian/control.
Files
- debian/package.sgmlcatalogs
Lists the catalogs to be installed per package. Each line in that file should be of the form
source dest
, where source indicates where the catalog resides in the source tree, and dest indicates the destination location for the catalog under the package build area. dest should start with /usr/share/sgml/.
Options
- -n, --no-scripts
Do not modify postinst/postrm/prerm scripts nor add an activation trigger.
Notes
Note that this command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be called between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.
