# dh\_installxsp(1)

install host files into /etc/xsp/conf.d and /etc/mono-server/conf.d

## NAME

dh\_installxsp - install host files into /etc/xsp/conf.d and  /etc/mono-server/conf.d

## SYNOPSIS

**dh\_installxsp** \[**debhelper options**\] \[**--name=***name*\] \[**-V** *version(s)*\]

## DESCRIPTION

dh\_installxsp is a debhelper program that will install host configuration files in /etc/xsp4/conf.d and /etc/mono-server4/conf.d  (for XSP 4). So, if xsp 4 is installed or will be installed, when xsp starts it automatically starts the daemon with the host file.

The files debian/package.hostxsp4 are used for XSP 4.

In the debian/rules file, dh\_installxsp needs to be called before dh\_installdeb to make sure the files are properly marked as conffiles to avoid the lintian warnings. Otherwise, the files created in /etc/ need to be marked as conffiles.

## OPTIONS

- **--name=***name*

  Look for files named debian/package.hostxsp4 and install them as /etc/xsp4/conf.d/package/hostfile.

- **-V** *version(s)*

  Installs the files for XSP 4.0 (**-V 4**). If this version is not  specified (or just **-V** is given), this only installed files for  XSP 4.

## SEE ALSO

[**debhelper**(7)](/debhelper/7.md)

This program is a part of mono-utils.
