* Package name : dh-builtusing Upstream : native Debian package, I am the author Version : 0.0.1 * URL : https://salsa.debian.org/debian/dh-builtusing * License : GPL-3+ Programming Lang: Perl Description : debhelper tool generating the Built-Using field for Debian packages This tool may help maintainers of Debian packages by generating parts of the Built-Using dependencies at build time. . It searches the Built-Using and Static-Built-Using fields in a source control file for substitutions of variables names like dh-builtusing:x, looks for x in build-dependencies, then defines the variable with the source package and version for x. . In other words, it replaces the call to dpgk-query that each package or debhelper tool has to duplicate for the Built-Using field. The dh_builtusing.pod manual page contains a full description. The log for #689062 contains the original discussion.
