Package: debmake (3.8.3)

helper package for debian/rules (deprecated)

This package provides the "debstd" script, which does the following:

 - Automates compression of documentation, localizes manpages
  compresses and installs them.
 - Supports multiple binaries generated from a single source package
 - Generates maintainer scripts for you and installs all scripts
  for you in the proper locations with the proper permissions.
 - Can perform modifications on a variety of important debian config files
  through generation of proper maintainer scripts.
 - Runs dpkg-shlibdeps on all ELF binaries for you and generates correct
  shlibs file for provided libraries automatically.
 - Checks symlinks to manpages /documentation and redirects
  them if a file was compressed.

This package is not being actively developed anymore, it's deprecated, and it will disappear in a future Debian release. Please do not use it to create new packages. If you plan to use a helper package for debian/rules, consider using debhelper instead.
