+.TH deb\-src\-rules 5 "2017-09-05" "Debian Project" "dpkg utilities"
+.SH NAME
+deb\-src\-rules \- Debian source package rules file
+.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+debian/rules
+.
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This file contains the instructions necessary to build the binary packages
+from the source package.
+.PP
+The \fIdebian/rules\fP file is an executable Makefile, with a shebang that
+is usually set to "#!/usr/bin/make -f".
+.PP
+It must support the following make targets:
+
+.TP
+.B clean
+Clean up the source tree, by undoing any change done by any of the build
+and binary targets.
+This target will be called with root privileges.
+.TP
+.B build\-indep
+Build architecture independent files required to build any architecture
+independent binary package.
+If there are no architecture independent binary packages to generate,
+the target must still exist but do nothing.
+This target must not require root privileges.
+.TP
+.B build\-arch
+Build architecture dependent files required to build any architecture
+dependent binary package.
+If there are no architecture dependent binary packages to generate,
+the target must still exist but do nothing.
+This target must not require root privileges.
+.TP
+.B build
+Build architecture independent and dependent files, either by depending
+(at least transitively) on \fBbuild\-indep\fP and/or \fBbuild\-arch\fP or
+by inlining what those targets would do.
+This target must not require root privileges.
+.TP
+.B binary\-indep
+Build architecture independent binary packages.
+This target must depend (at least transitively) on either \fBbuild\-indep\fP
+or \fBbuild\fP.
+This target will be called with root privileges.
+.TP
+.B binary\-arch
+Build architecture dependent binary packages.
+This target must depend (at least transitively) on either \fBbuild\-arch\fP
+or \fBbuild\fP.
+This target will be called with root privileges.
+.TP
+.B binary
+Build architecture independent and dependent binary packages, either by
+depending (at least transitively) on \fBbinary\-indep\fP and/or
+\fBbinary\-arch\fP or by inlining what those targets would do.
+This target will be called with root privileges.
