.TH DH_SUIDREGISTER 1
.SH NAME
dh_suidregister \- set up package to register files with suidregister
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B dh_suidregister
.I "[-v] [-a] [-i] [-ppackage] [file ...]"
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
dh_suidregister is a debhelper program that is responsible for modifying the
postinst and postrm scripts of a package so the package will register files
with 
.BR suidregister (1)
when it is installed.
.P
Any files specified as parameters will be registered, if dh_suidregister is
acting on the first binary package listed in debian/control.
.P
The files debian/suid (for the first binary package in debian/control) or 
debian/package.suid (for  each  additional package in debian/control) can 
list other files to be registered.
.P
If neither of these methods is used to specify files, dh_suidregister will
scan the package build directory for files that have suid permissions, and
will automatically register all files it finds.
.P
Note that this package modifies your postinst and postrm files. See
.BR dh_installdebfiles (1)
for an explination of how this works.
