DH_CLIGACPOLICY(1) Debhelper for CLI (Common Language Infrastructure) DH_CLIGACPOLICY(1)

NAME

dh_cligacpolicy - creates and installs a CLI policy file for a package

SYNOPSIS

dh_cligacpolicy [debhelper options] [-n]

DESCRIPTION

dh_cligacpolicy is a debhelper program that is responsible for creating, compiling, and installing policy files for a Debian package. This automatically includes postinst and prerm commands needed to install these policies into the system.

OPTIONS

-n, --noscripts
Do not modify postinst/prerm scripts.

FILE FORMAT

This file uses the debian/cligacpolicy files (either policyassemblies or debian/packagename.cligacpolicy) to generate the policy file. It supports multiple versions of the policy, including mapping multiple versions to a single file.
The file format of the cligacpolicy file consists of five properties per line, each one separated by whitespace.
Keyfile is a path, from the package root, to the .snk file =used to sign the assembly.
Assembly is the name of the assembly, without the .dll =extension. For example, for log4net.dll, use log4net.
Version Range can be a single four-part version, such as =1.2.3.4, or a full range, such as 1.2.3.4-1.2.6.7. For a single line, =the first two numbers must be identical. To have an assembly apply to =multiple versions, such as 1.2.0.0 to 2.4.0.0, there needs to be one =line for each version range.
Assembly version is the version of the assembly being =built.
Priority defines the priority of the policy files. =Typically, each version will increase the priority and =contains all the policy controls for prior versions.
The fields can be separated with spaces or tabs. Comments start the line with # characters and blank lines are ignored.

NOTES

Note that this command is not idempotent. "dh_clean -k" should be called between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.

EXAMPLE

For the log4net 1.2.10.0 version, a policy file is used to map all versions from 1.2.8.0 to 1.2.9.99 into the current version.
debian/log4net.snk log4net 1.2.8.0-1.2.9.99 1.2.10.0 10
