NAME

dh_perl_openssl - add dependencies required for OpenSSL modules

SYNOPSIS

dh_perl_openssl [debhelper options]

DESCRIPTION

dh_perl_openssl is a debhelper program that is responsible for adding a dependency on perl-openssl-abi-* to the ${perl:Depends} substitution variable. Such a dependency is needed for packages that expose the OpenSSL binary interface to Perl code, such as pointers to "SSL_CTX" structs.

A debhelper addon is also provided. This makes it possible to just use

  #!/usr/bin/make -f
  %:
          dh $@ --with perl_openssl

for debian/rules.

Alternatively, since perl-openssl-defaults/4 you can just build depend on dh-sequence-perl-openssl and omit the "--with perl_openssl" part.
