Hi, Attached is my first debhelper tool, dh_gconf. It appears to work for me, and if no-one objects or finds serious issues, I'll ask for it to be included in the gconf2 package.
To use it, simply call dh_gconf somewhere after 'make install'. If you
don't want to drop the postinst-gconf file into
/usr/share/debhelper/autoscripts, you can set DH_AUTOSCRIPTDIR. The
script will find any installed gconf schemas, and generate the relevant
postinst script.
Debhelper rocks.
Regards,
Ross

=head1 NAME
dh_gconf - generate GConf schema registration scripts
=cut
use strict;
use Debian::Debhelper::Dh_Lib;
=head1 SYNOPSIS
B<dh_gconf> [S<I<debhelper options>>] [B<-p<package>>]
=head1 DESCRIPTION
dh_gconf is a debhelper program that is responsible for correctly
registering GConf schemas.
It automatically generates the postinst script to call gconftool, and
register the schemas which have been installed into
/etc/gconf/schemas.
To use this script, call it in the relevant binary-% target in
debian/rules, and add $(misc:Depends) to your Depends so your packages
require the correct GConf tools.
=cut
# Get the debhelper init groove going.
init();
foreach my $package (@{$dh{DOPACKAGES}}) {
my $tmp=tmpdir($package);
# Only run if there have been GConf schemas installed
if (-d "$tmp/etc/gconf/schemas") {
# Get a list of the schemas
my $schemas = `find debian/$package/etc/gconf/schemas -type f -printf '%P '`;
# If there were some schemas...
if ($schemas ne '') {
# Add the postinst script to register the schemas
autoscript($package,"postinst","postinst-gconf","s%#SCHEMAS#%$schemas%");
# Add the prerm script to unregister the schemas
# TODO: gconftool-2 needs work for this :(
# To run the postinst script we need gconftool-2
addsubstvar($package, "misc:Depends", "gconf2");
} else {
# If it turns out there were not any schemas installed, warn
error("No schemas were present but the schema folder exists. Looks like 'make install' didn't work correctly.");
}
} else {
# dh_gconf is being called but no gconf schemas were installed
error("The directory /etc/gconf/schemas was not present. Does this package supply GConf schemas?");
}
}
