description
dh_md5sums
is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating a
DEBIAN/md5sums file, which lists the md5sums of each
file in the package. These files are used by the
debsums package.
All files in
DEBIAN/ are omitted from the
md5sums file, as are all conffiles (unless you use
the --include-conffiles
switch).
The md5sums
file is installed with proper permissions and
ownerships.
options
-x,
--include-conffiles
Include conffiles in the
md5sums list. Note that this information is redundant since
it is included elsewhere in Debian packages.
-Xitem,
--exclude=item
Exclude files that contain
item anywhere in their filename from being listed in
the md5sums file.
