PROGRAM:
NAME
dh_compress - compress files and fix symlinks in package build directories
SYNOPSIS
dh_compress [debhelper options] [-Xitem] [-A] [file ...]
DESCRIPTION
dh_compress is a debhelper program that is responsible for compressing the files in
package build directories, and makes sure that any symlinks that pointed to the files
before they were compressed are updated to point to the new files.
By default, dh_compress compresses files that Debian policy mandates should be compressed,
namely all files in usr/share/info, usr/share/man, files in usr/share/doc that are larger
than 4k in size, (except the copyright file, .html and other web files, image files, and
files that appear to be already compressed based on their extensions), and all changelog
files. Plus PCF fonts underneath usr/share/fonts/X11/
