It skips any files that appear to be already compressed (based on their -extensions). -.P -If a debian/package.compress file exists, however, it will be ran as a shell -script, and all filenames that the shell script outputs will be compressed -instead of the default files. Note that the shell script will be run from -inside the package build directory. Note though that using -X is a much -better idea in general; you should only use a debian/package.compress file if -you really have to. -.SH OPTIONS -.TP -.B debhelper options -See -.BR debhelper (1) -for a list of options common to all debhelper commands. -.TP -.B \-Xitem, \--exclude=item -Exclude files that contain "item" anywhere in their filename from being -compressed. For example, -X.jpeg will exclude jpeg's from compression. -You may use this option multiple times to build up a list of things to -exclude. You can accomplish the same thing by using a debian/compress file, -but this is easier. -.TP -.B \-A, \--all -Compress all files specified by command line parameters in ALL packages -acted on. -.TP -.B file ... -Add these files to the list of files to compress. -.SH ENVIRONMENT -See -.BR debhelper (1) -for a list of environment variables that affect all debhelper commands. -.SH "SEE ALSO" -.BR debhelper (1) -.SH BUGS -Filenames with spaces in them may not properly be compressed. -.SH "CONFORMS TO" -Debian policy, version 3.0.0.0 -.SH AUTHOR -Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> |
