Package: debhelper
Version: 7.2.9
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
I have a package which needs me to pass 'PREFIX=/usr' to the $MAKE
call in the build rule and 'DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/package DOC="NEWS
TODO CONTRIBUTORS" PREFIX=/usr' in the install rule. I have not found
an easier way to achieve this with debhelper than using
override_dh_auto_build and override_dh_auto_install rules. However,
instead of overriding the complete $MAKE call, it would be nice if
there were environment variables that dh listens to which tell what
arguments are to be passed to $MAKE.
In my case this proposal would turn this debian/rules:
#!/usr/bin/make -f
%:
dh $@
override_dh_auto_build:
$(MAKE) PREFIX=/usr
override_dh_auto_install:
$(MAKE) install DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/package DOC="NEWS TODO
CONTRIBUTORS" PREFIX=/usr
into for example this:
#!/usr/bin/make -f
DH_AUTO_BUILD_TARGET += PREFIX=/usr
DH_AUTO_INSTALL_TARGET += install PREFIX=/usr
DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/hot-babe DOC="NEWS TODO CONTRIBUTORS"
%:
dh $@
Cheers,
Fabian
