+.SH NAME
+dh_installinit \- install init scripts into package build directories
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B dh_installinit
+.I "[-v] [-a] [-i] [-ppackage] [-Ptmpdir] [-n] [-r] [-d] [-u params]"
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+dh_installmenu is a debhelper program that is responsible for installing
+init scripts into package build directories.
+.P
+It also automatically generates the postinst and postrm and prerm commands
+needed to set up the symlinks in /etc/rc*.d/ and to start and stop the init
+scripts.
+.P
+If a file named debian/init exists, then it is installed into
+etc/init.d/package in the package build directory (with "package" replaced
+by the package name, unless the -d flag is specified, see below)
+.P
+For packages other than the first binary package listed in
+the control file, use debian/package.init instead (replace "package" with
+the name of the package.)
