+dh_installdebconf - install files used by debconf in package build directories

+use Debian::Debhelper::Dh_Lib;
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+B<dh_installdebconf> [S<I<debhelper options>>] [B<-n>] [S<B<--> I<params>>]
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+B<dh_installdebconf> is a debhelper program that is responsible for installing
+files used by debconf into package build directories.
+
+It also automatically generates the F<postrm> commands needed to interface
+with debconf. The commands are added to the maintainer scripts by
+B<dh_installdeb>. See L<dh_installdeb(1)> for an explanation of how that
+works.
+
+Note that if you use debconf, your package probably needs to depend on it
+(it will be added to B<${misc:Depends}> by this program).
+
+Note that for your config script to be called by B<dpkg>, your F<postinst>
+needs to source debconf's confmodule. B<dh_installdebconf> does not
+install this statement into the F<postinst> automatically as it is too
+hard to do it right.
+
+=head1 FILES
+
+=over 4
+
+=item debian/I<package>.config
+
+This is the debconf F<config> script, and is installed into the F<DEBIAN>
+directory in the package build directory.
+
+Inside the script, the token B<#DEBHELPER#> is replaced with
+shell script snippets generated by other debhelper commands.
+
+=item debian/I<package>.templates
+
+This is the debconf F<templates> file, and is installed into the F<DEBIAN>
+directory in the package build directory.
+
+=item F<debian/po/>
+
+If this directory is present, this program will automatically use
+L<po2debconf(1)> to generate merged templates
+files that include the translations from there.
+
+For this to work, your package should build-depend on F<po-debconf>.
