The source files are the already existing files that will be +symlinked from (called B<target> by L<ln(1)>). The destination files +are the symlinks that will be created (called B<link name> by +L<ln(1)>). There B<must> be an equal number of source and destination +files specified. + +Be sure you B<do> specify the absolute path to both the source and +destination files (unlike you would do if you were using something +like L<ln(1)>). Please note that the leading slash is optional. + +B<dh_link> will generate symlinks that comply with Debian policy - absolute +when policy says they should be absolute, and relative links with as short +a path as possible. It will also create any subdirectories it needs to put +the symlinks in. + +Any pre-existing destination files will be replaced with symlinks. + +B<dh_link> also scans the package build tree for existing symlinks which do not +conform to Debian policy, and corrects them (v4 or later). + +=head1 FILES + +=over 4 + +=item debian/I<package>.links + +Lists pairs of source and destination files to be symlinked. Each pair +should be put on its own line, with the source and destination separated by +whitespace. + +In each pair the source file (called B<target> by L<ln(1)>) comes +first and is followed by the destination file (called B<link name> by +L<ln(1)>). Thus the pairs of source and destination files in each line +are given in the same order as they would be given to L<ln(1)>. + +In contrast to L<ln(1)>, source and destination paths must be absolute +(the leading slash is optional). + +Supports substitution variables in compat 13 and later as +documented in L<debhelper(7)>. + +=back + +=head1 OPTIONS + +=over 4 + +=item B<-A>, B<--all> + +Create any links specified by command line parameters in ALL packages +acted on, not just the first. + +=item B<-X>I<item>, B<--exclude=>I<item> + +Exclude symlinks that contain I<item> anywhere in their filename from +being corrected to comply with Debian policy. + +=item I<source destination> ... + +Create a file named I<destination> as a link to a file named I<source>.
