DH_CLIFIXPERMS(1)

✨ DH_CLIFIXPERMS(1) — the "Debhelper for CLI (Common Language Infrastructure)" era 💅

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, because we're talking about permissions and honestly? it's giving main character energy.

---

🎀 NAME 🎀

dh_clifixperms — the little helper that fixes the permissions of files in your CLI package build directories. yes queen, it does exactly what it says on the tin 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

dh_clifixperms [debhelper options] [-Xitem]

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so like, dh_clifixperms is a debhelper program, and its whole job — its entire personality, fr fr — is setting the permissions of files and directories for CLI assemblies and executables. no cap.

here's the tea, and it's actually so simple:

• every file that ends in *.dll gets mode 644
• every file that ends in *.mdb gets mode 644
• every file that ends in *.cs gets mode 644
• every file that ends in *.aspx gets mode 644
• every file that ends in *.config gets mode 644
• and every file that ends in *.exe gets mode 755 🔥

that's it. that's the whole vibe check. it walks in, chmods your files, and leaves. iconic behavior honestly.

---

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• -Xitem, --exclude item — this one says "not you, bestie 🙈". any file that contains item anywhere in its filename gets skipped and its permissions stay exactly how they are. and you can use this option as many times as you want to stack up a whole list of things to exclude — build that exclusion list, girlboss 💅

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

• debhelper(7) — go read it, iykyk

also important: this program is a part of cli-common. like, it lives there. that's its home. that's its address. 🏠
