NAME

       dh_consoledata - declare console data files

SYNOPSIS

         dh_consoledata [debhelper options] [-n]

DESCRIPTION

       This program is meant to assist in building a package that provides data files for the
       console.  It is still in the early stages of developement, and many features are still
       missing or partly implemented.  Please look at /usr/share/doc/console-common/TODO for more
       details.

       For now this program takes a debian/package.keymaps file, installs in in the package build
       directory, and creates the debian/package.config and debian/package.templates files.

       It also makes the ${console:depends} variable available for the control file.  This
       variable should be referenced in the Depends field, as should ${perl:depends} if you use
       dh_perl (which you should call anyway, since your package will include a perl debconf
       script).

       It should ultimately allow to declare fonts and SFM fallbacks.

OPTIONS

       -n, --noscripts
           Do not modify postinst/postrm scripts.

       -d  Install the debconf templates and config script (and add the postinst fragment, unless
           -n is also specified), even if there is no debian/package.keymaps file.  This is
           normally intended for internal use, be careful that the name of the option and its
           semantics will probably change in the near future, to accomodate for new needs.

SEE ALSO

       debhelper(1)

       This program is an extention to debhelper.
