dpkg-buildpackage

Compile binary and/or source Debian packages from source code. Normally executed inside a source tree that contains a debian/ directory. Also handles build dependencies, creates files like .buildinfo and .changes, and signs the result if applicable. More information: https://manned.org/dpkg-buildpackage.

• Generate source and binary packages:

dpkg-buildpackage

• Generate only binary packages (no source package):

dpkg-buildpackage {{[-b|--build=binary]}}

• Generate only the source package (without compiling binaries):

dpkg-buildpackage {{[-S|--build=source]}}

• Do not sign the .dsc and .changes files:

dpkg-buildpackage {{[-us|--unsigned-source]}} {{[-uc|--unsigned-changes]}}

• Do not run clean before compiling:

dpkg-buildpackage {{[-nc|--no-pre-clean]}}

• Use fakeroot as the command to gain root privileges during the build:

dpkg-buildpackage {{[-r|--root-command=]}}fakeroot

• Run a specific debian/rules target:

dpkg-buildpackage {{[-T|--rules-target=]}}{{clean}}
