NAME
mk-build-deps - build a package satisfying a package's build-dependencies
SYNOPSIS
mk-build-deps --help|--version
mk-build-deps [options] control file | package name ...
DESCRIPTION
Given a package name and/or control file, mk-build-deps will use equivs to generate a
binary package which may be installed to satisfy all the build dependencies of the given
package.
If --build-dep and/or --build-indep are given, then the resulting binary package(s) will
depend solely on the Build-Depends/Build-Depends-Indep dependencies, respectively.

Install the generated packages and its build-dependencies.
-t, --tool
When installing the generated package use the specified tool. (default: apt-get
--no-install-recommends)
-r, --remove
Remove the package file after installing it. Ignored if used without the --install
switch.
-a foo, --arch foo
If the source package has architecture-specific build dependencies, produce a package
for architecture foo, not for the system architecture. (If the source package does not

dependencies.
