Hi Andres,

chromium-browser at one point required manually adding some extra dependencies in Depends field, so there was a need to override part of debhelper.mk that ran dh_gencontrol. It was documented however that in order to do this, the target 'binary-makedeb-IMPL/%' had to be overridden.

Please provide some form of documentation that explains the above use case. I'm sure there are similar use cases too, such as overridding dh_shlibdeps.

Thanks for reporting this!

Documentation for CDBS certainly is lacking behind :-(

Could you point to the specific phrase in the documentation that is wrong?

Depending on what exactly you wanted to do, I believe the proper approach is to set DEB_DH_SHLIBDEPS_ARGS.


Kind regards,
