dh_perl_dbi1

Add dependencies required for dbi modules

Usage

dh_perl_dbi [debhelper options]

Overview

dh_perl_dbi is a debhelper program that is responsible for adding a dependency on perl-dbdabi-* to the ${perl:Depends} substitution variable. Such a dependency is required for packages that use the DBD<>DBI binary interface; do not use this for packages that only use the DBI module.

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

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

for debian/rules.

Alternatively, since libdbi-perl/1.642-1 you can just build depend on dh-sequence-perl-dbi and omit the "--with perl_dbi" part.
