DH_INSTALLTMPFILES(1) Debhelper DH_INSTALLTMPFILES(1)
dh_installtmpfiles - install tmpfiles.d configuration files
dh_installtmpfiles [debhelper options][--name=name]
dh_installtmpfiles is a debhelper program that is responsible for
installing package maintainer supplied tmpfiles.d configuration
files (e.g. for systemd-tmpfiles).
It also finds the tmpfiles.d configuration files installed by a
package and generates postinst code blocks for activating the
tmpfiles.d configuration when the package is installed. These
snippets are added to the maintainer scripts by dh_installdeb(1).
In compat 14+, tmpfiles.d files are copied into the postrm script,
and they are used with systemd-tmpfiles --remove after the package
is removed and --purge when the package is purged. This allows one
to use the tmpfiles.d mechanism to clean up files that are no
longer needed after a package has been removed/purged.
--name=name
This option controls both a prefix used for looking up
maintainer provided tmpfiles.d configuration files (those
mentioned in the "FILES" section) and also the base name used
for the installed version of the file.
debian/package.tmpfiles
If this exists, it is installed into usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/ in
the package build directory. Note that the "tmpfiles.d"
mechanism is currently only used by systemd.
debian/package.tmpfile
Deprecated name for debian/package.tmpfiles.
This command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be called
between invocations of this command (with the same arguments).
Otherwise, it may cause multiple instances of the same text to be
added to maintainer scripts.
