NAME

dh_octave_substvar - generate substitution variables for an Octave-Forge package

SYNOPSIS

dh_octave_substvar [ debhelper options ]

DESCRIPTION

dh_octave_substvar generates the substitution variables "${octave:Depends}" and "${octave:Upstream-Description}" needed for building an Octave-Forge Debian package. It also injects the dependency on the appropriate virtual package octave-abi-N into "${shlibs:Depends}", for packages that contain *.oct and *.mex, according to the current Octave’s API_VERSION.

SEE ALSO

debhelper (7), dh (1), dh_octave_clean (1), dh_octave_check (1), dh_octave_version (1), dh_octave_changelogs (1), , dh_octave_examples (1)

This program is meant to be used together with debhelper for Debian packages derived from Octave-Forge packages. It is recommended to enable it by adding the dh-sequence-octave virtual package to Build-Depends, Build-Depends-Arch or Build-Depends-Indep. This is equivalent to adding dh-octave to the same field and adding --with=octave to the dh sequencer in debian/rules, except that only -arch/-indep/profiled builds are affected. This is also slightly more simple in the most common case.
