NAME

dh_package_notes - Add package metadata to ELF header

SYNOPSIS

dh_package_notes

DESCRIPTION

dh_package_notes provides a linker specs file to include package metadata in ELF binaries built by packages.

The package metadata specification for ELF binaries can be found at <https://systemd.io/ELF_PACKAGE_METADATA/>.

dh_package_notes provides a linker specs file at /usr/share/debhelper/dh_package_notes/debian-package-notes.specs which can be used by including /usr/share/debhelper/dh_package_notes/debian-package-notes.mk at the dop of debian/rules . This will export the right environment variables that will result in a package note ELF section being added to all packaged ELF files, with the package type set to deb , the package name and version set to the source package name and version respectively, the OS set to Debian and debuginfod URL set to https://debuginfod.debian.net . On Ubuntu, the OS will be set to Ubuntu and debuginfod URL will be set to https://debuginfod.ubuntu.com .

Note that it is not sufficient to build-depend on this package, the include must be used at the top of debian/rules for this to be enabled.
