NAME
dh_installemacsen - register an Emacs add on package
SYNOPSIS
dh_installemacsen [
debhelper options] [
-n] [
--priority=n] [
--flavor=foo]
DESCRIPTION
dh_installemacsen is a debhelper program that is responsible for installing
files used by the Debian
emacsen-common package into package build
directories.
It also automatically generates the preinst postinst and prerm
commands needed to register a package as an Emacs add on package. The commands
are added to the maintainer scripts by dh_installdeb. See
dh_installdeb(1) for an explanation of how this works.
FILES

-
Installed into usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/compat/package in the
package build directory.

- debian/package.emacsen-startup

build directory. Use --priority to use a different priority than 50.

- --priority=n
-
Sets the priority number of a site-start.d file. Default is 50.

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.
