NAME

       dh_cruft - install cruft files into package build directories

SYNOPSIS

       dh_cruft [debhelper options]

DESCRIPTION

       dh_cruft is a debhelper program that is responsible for installing information files used by cruft(-ng)
       into package build directories.

FILES

       debian/package.cruft
           Installed  into  usr/share/cruft/rules/package  in  the package build directory. This file is used to
           register runtime files as belonging to this package. For clarity, directories should end with a '/'.

       debian/package.purge
           Appended to usr/share/cruft/rules/package in the package  build  directory.  This  file  is  used  to
           register  runtime  files  as  belonging to this package. For claririty, directories should end with a
           '/'.

           Also, a snippet is appended to postrm with the needed rm -rf commands to remove these files on  purge
           phase.

           Some  basic  templating  is  implemented:  the  #VERSION#  tag will be replaced by the basic upstream
           version.
