dh_clean − clean up package build directories
dh_clean [debhelper options] [−k] [−d] [−Xitem] [file ...]
dh_clean is a
debhelper program that is responsible for cleaning up after
a package is built. It removes the package build
directories, and removes some other files including
debian/files, and any detritus left behind by other
debhelper commands. It also removes common files that should
not appear in a debian diff:
#*# *~ DEADJOE *.orig *.rej *.SUMS
TAGS .deps/* *.P *−stamp
It does not run "make clean" to clean up after the build process. Use dh_auto_clean(1) to do things like that.
dh_clean (or "dh clean") should be the last debhelper command run in the clean target in debian/rules.
debian/clean
Can list other files to be removed.
−k, −−keep
This is deprecated, use dh_prep(1) instead.
−d, −−dirs−only
Only clean the package build directories, do not clean up any other files at all.
−Xitem −−exclude=item
Exclude files that contain "item" anywhere in their filename from being deleted, even if they would normally be deleted. You may use this option multiple times to build up a list of things to exclude.
file ...
Delete these files too.
debhelper(7)
This program is a part of debhelper.
