\&\fBdh_builddeb\fR [\fIdebhelper options\fR] [\fB\-\-destdir=\fR\fIdirectory\fR] [\fB\-\-filename=\fR\fIname\fR] [\fB\-\-\fR \fIparams\fR]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBdh_builddeb\fR simply calls \fIdpkg\-deb\fR\|(1) to build a Debian package
or packages.  It will also build dbgsym packages when \fIdh_strip\fR\|(1)
and \fIdh_gencontrol\fR\|(1) have prepared them.
.PP
It supports building multiple binary packages in parallel, when enabled by
\&\s-1DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS.\s0
.SH "OPTIONS"
.IX Header "OPTIONS"
.IP "\fB\-\-destdir=\fR\fIdirectory\fR" 4
.IX Item "--destdir=directory"
Use this if you want the generated \fI.deb\fR files to be put in a directory
other than the default of "\fI..\fR".
.IP "\fB\-\-filename=\fR\fIname\fR" 4
.IX Item "--filename=name"
Use this if you want to force the generated .deb file to have a particular
file name. Does not work well if more than one .deb is generated!
.IP "\fB\-\-\fR \fIparams\fR" 4
.IX Item "-- params"
Pass \fIparams\fR to \fIdpkg\-deb\fR\|(1) when it is used to build the
package.
.IP "\fB\-u\fR\fIparams\fR" 4
.IX Item "-uparams"
This is another way to pass \fIparams\fR to \fIdpkg\-deb\fR\|(1).
It is deprecated; use \fB\-\-\fR instead.
