DH_GIREPOSITORY(1)           gobject-introspection          DH_GIREPOSITORY(1)

NAME
       dh_girepository - compute dependencies for GObject introspection
       packages

SYNOPSIS
       dh_girepository [debhelper options] [-ldirectory] [-pdirectory]
       [-Xitem] [private [...]]

DESCRIPTION
       dh_girepository is a debhelper program to compute dependencies for
       packages shipping GObject introspection data.

       The dependencies are generated in the ${gir:Depends} substitution
       variable.

       The minimal version of the generated dependencies is calculated by
       looking first at the version of the packages declared in the build-
       dependencies of the building package. If a package is not declared in
       the build-dependencies, the minimal version of that package is
       calculated by looking at the version of the package containing the
       corresponding .gir file defined in the build-dependencies.

       Note that dh_girepository will not be executed automatically by dh; you
       need to use "dh $@ --with gir" for "dh" to include it.

OPTIONS
       -ldirectory
           Specify a directory (or a colon-separated list of directories)
           where to look for the .gir XML files that were used to generate the
           .typelib files that are scanned. This option is only necessary if
           those files are not shipped in another, architecture-dependent
           package.

       -pdirectory
           Specify a directory (or a colon-separated list of directories)
           where to look for the dependencies. This is useful when a
           dependency ships the .typelib in a private directory.

       -Xitem
           Exclude files that contain item anywhere in their filename from
           being analyzed.

       private [...] List of directories where to look for typelibs and the
       corresponding .gir files. Useful when the package installs its typelibs
       in a private directory, such as /usr/lib/<package>. Library
       dependencies are also looked there, in case your typelib depends on a
       library that you ship on a private directory.

       GObject introspection mini policy as of 2011-03-30.
