DH_INSTALLWM(1)                    Debhelper                   DH_INSTALLWM(1)

NAME
       dh_installwm - register a window manager

SYNOPSIS
       dh_installwm [debhelperoptions] [-n] [--priority=n] [wm...]

DESCRIPTION
       dh_installwm is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating
       the postinst and prerm commands that register a window manager with
       update-alternatives(8). The window manager's man page is also
       registered as a slave symlink (in v6 mode and up).  It must be
       installed in usr/share/man/man1/ in the package build directory prior
       to calling dh_installwm.  In compat 9 and earlier, the manpage was
       optional.

FILES
       debian/package.wm
           List window manager programs to register.

           Supports substitution variables in compat 13 and later as
           documented in debhelper(7).

OPTIONS
       --priority=n
           Set the priority of the window manager. Default is 20, which is too
           low for most window managers; see the Debian Policy document for
           instructions on calculating the correct value.

       -n, --no-scripts
           Do not modify postinst/prerm scripts. Turns this command into a no-
           op.

       -A, --all
           Modify scripts for window managers specified by command line
           parameters in ALL packages acted on, not just the first.

       wm ...
           Window manager programs to register.

NOTES
       Note that this command is not idempotent. dh_prep(1) should be called
       between invocations of this command. Otherwise, it may cause multiple
       instances of the same text to be added to maintainer scripts.
