NAME

       dh_dkms - correctly handle DKMS usage by a kernel module package

SYNOPSIS

       dh_dkms [debhelper options] [-l] [-V[version]] [-- file]

DESCRIPTION

       dh_dkms is a debhelper program that is responsible for correctly setting postinst, postrm
       and dependencies in kernel module packages using DKMS.

       If a file named debian/package.dkms exists, then different actions are performed,
       depending on its contents.

FILES

       debian/package.dkms
       debian/dkms
           It can be a proper configuration file, and in this case it would be installed in the
           proper directory as dkms.conf.

           It can also point to another file (this should be used when the configuration is
           provided by upstream), and in this case that file will be installed as dkms.conf in
           the proper directory.

           This file can only miss if a filename is provided when calling dh_dkms.

OPTIONS

       -l, --legacy
           Add code to also support DKMS versions < 2.1.0.0.

       -V, -V version
           If "PACKAGE_VERSION" in dkms.conf is set to "#MODULE_VERSION#", set it to the given
           version or, if none is given, default to the upstream version of the current package.
           Otherwise, leave the value specified in dkms.conf.

       -- file
           Don't look for debian/package.dkms or debian/dkms, but install file as dkms.conf.

NOTES

       Note that this command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be called between invocations
       of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple instances of the same text to be added
       to maintainer scripts.
