DH_PYPY(1) DH_PYPY(1)

NAME

dh_pypy - calculates PyPy dependencies, adds maintainer scripts to byte compile files, etc.

SYNOPSIS

dh_pypy -p PACKAGE [-V [X.Y][-][A.B]] DIR [-X REGEXPR]


DESCRIPTION

QUICK GUIDE FOR MAINTAINERS

•
build-depend on pypy and dh-python,
•
add ${pypy:Depends} to Depends
•
build module/application using its standard build system,
•
install files to the standard locations,
•
add pypy to dh's --with option, or:
•
call dh_pypy in the binary-* target,



NOTES

dependencies

dh_pypy tries to translate Python dependencies from requires.txt file to Debian dependencies. Use debian/pypydist-overrides or --no-guessing-deps option to override it if the guess is incorrect. If you want dh_pypy to generate more strict dependencies (f.e. to avoid ABI problems) create debian/pypy-foo.pydist file. See /usr/share/doc/dh-python/README.PyDist for more information. If the pydist file contains PEP386 flag or set of (uscan like) rules, dh_pypy will make the depedency versioned (version requirements are ignored by default).

private dirs

/usr/share/foo, /usr/share/games/foo, /usr/lib/foo and /usr/lib/games/foo private directories are scanned for Python files by default (where foo is binary package name). If your package is shipping Python files in some other directory, add another dh_pypy call in debian/rules with directory name as an argument - you can use different set of options in this call. If you need to change options for a private directory that is checked by default, invoke dh_pypy with --skip-private option and add another call with a path to this directory and new options.

debug packages

In binary packages which name ends with -dbg, all files in /usr/lib/pypy/dist-packages/ directory that have extensions different than so or h are removed by default. Use --no-dbg-cleaning option to disable this feature.

overriding supported / default PyPy versions

If you want to override system's list of supported PyPy versions or the default one (f.e. to build a package that includes symlinks for older version of PyPy or compile .py files only for given interpreter version), you can do that via DEBPYPY_SUPPORTED and/or DEBPYPY_DEFAULT env. variables.

OPTIONS

--version
show program's version number and exit
-h, --help
show help message and exit
--no-guessing-deps
disable guessing dependencies
--no-dbg-cleaning
do not remove any files from debug packages

--no-ext-rename do not add magic tags nor multiarch tuples to extension file names
--no-shebang-rewrite
do not rewrite shebangs
--skip-private
don't check private directories
-v, --verbose
turn verbose mode on
-i, --indep
act on architecture independent packages
-a, --arch
act on architecture dependent packages
-q, --quiet
be quiet
-p PACKAGE, --package=PACKAGE
act on the package named PACKAGE
-N NO_PACKAGE, --no-package=NO_PACKAGE
do not act on the specified package
-X REGEXPR, --exclude=REGEXPR
exclude items that match given REGEXPR. You may use this option multiple times to build up a list of things to exclude.
--compile-all
compile all files from given private directory in postinst/rtupdate not just the ones provided by the package (i.e. do not pass the --package parameter to py3compile/py3clean)
--depends=DEPENDS

--requires=FILENAME
translate requirements from given file(s) into Debian dependencies and add them to ${pypy:Depends}
--shebang=COMMAND
use given command as shebang in scripts
--ignore-shebangs
do not translate shebangs into Debian dependencies
