💖 DH_INSTALLPPP(1) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Debhelper corner of the manual pages ✨ this one's called dh_installppp and she's literally so simple you're gonna slay this in like thirty seconds 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

dh_installppp — install ppp ip-up and ip-down files 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

dh_installppp [debhelper options] [--name=name]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so dh_installppp is a debhelper program, which basically means she's one of those little helper girlies that do one job and do it flawlessly 👑

her whole thing? installing ppp ip-up and ip-down scripts into package build directories. that's it. that's the vibe. no cap 🎀

🎀 FILES 🎀

  • debian/package.ppp.ip-up — gets installed into etc/ppp/ip-up.d/package in the package build directory 🌈
  • debian/package.ppp.ip-down — gets installed into etc/ppp/ip-down.d/package in the package build directory 🦋
notice the pattern bestie — <italic>package</italic> in these filenames is literally the package name, iykyk 💜

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • --name=name — ok so instead of vibing with the usual files and installing them as the package name, she'll go looking for files called debian/package.name.ppp.ip-* and install those as etc/ppp/ip-*/name 🌟 lowkey a glow-up for anyone who needs the scripts to land under a different name fr fr
