dh_installemacsen is a debhelper program that is responsible for installing
files used by the debian emacsen-common package into package build
directories.
It also automatically generates the postinst and prerm commands needed to
register a package as an emacs add on package. The commands are added to
the maintainer scripts by dh_installdeb. See dh_installdeb(1)
for an explanation of how this works.
If a file named debian/package.emacsen-install exists, then it is installed
into
usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/install/package in the package build
directory. Similarly, debian/package.emacsen-remove is installed into
usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/remove/package . And similarly,
debian/package.emacsen-startup is installed into
etc/emacs/site-start.d/50<package>.el (by default).
OPTIONS
-n, --noscripts
Do not modify postinst/prerm scripts.
--priority=n
Sets the priority number of a site-start.d file. Default is 50.
--flavor=foo
Sets the flavor a site-start.d file will be installed in. Default is
``emacs'', alternatives include ``xemacs'' and ``emacs20''.
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.
