# dh\_raku\_build(1)

## NAME

dh\_raku\_build -- automatically build Raku module packages

## SYNOPSIS

**dh\_raku\_build**

## DESCRIPTION

This script calls `"install-dist.p6"` to build a Raku module package.

Then it injects rakudo dependencies information in `"${raku:Depends}"` variable.

In other word, your control file **must** have a line like:

```
    Depends: ${raku:Depends}
```

### HOME directory

Before building the package, the `"HOME"` directory is set to `"debian/tmp/home"`. This directory is cleaned up after the build is done.
