NAME¶
dh_auto_clean - automatically cleans up after a build
SYNOPSIS¶
dh_auto_clean [
build system options]
[
debhelper options] [
-- params]
DESCRIPTION¶
dh_auto_clean is a debhelper program that tries to automatically clean up
after a package build. It does so by running the appropriate command for the
build system it detects the package uses. For example, if there's a
Makefile and it contains a
distclean,
realclean, or
clean target, then this is done by running
make (or
MAKE,
if the environment variable is set). If there is a
setup.py or
Build.PL, it is run to clean the package.
This is intended to work for about 90% of packages. If it doesn't work, or tries
to use the wrong clean target, you're encouraged to skip using
dh_auto_clean at all, and just run
make clean manually.
OPTIONS¶
See "
BUILD SYSTEM OPTIONS" in
debhelper(7) for a list
of common build system selection and control options.
- -- params
- Pass params to the program that is run, after the parameters that
dh_auto_clean usually passes.
