| 15 | Description: Debhelper (and CDBS) modules for building configuration packages |
|---|
| 16 | This package contains a system of modules for creating Debian |
|---|
| 17 | configuration packages: packages that configure an existing Debian |
|---|
| 18 | system by using dpkg-divert on configuration files. These modules |
|---|
| 19 | attempt to make the process of creating configuration packages |
|---|
| 20 | efficient by checking the md5sums of upstream configuration files |
|---|
| 21 | that are to be modified and automatically generating the relevant |
|---|
| 22 | postinst code to perform the diversions using the standard debhelper |
|---|
| 23 | mechanism. In addition to a debhelper command and sequencer extension |
|---|
| 24 | module, CDBS modules are also included, but future development will |
|---|
| 25 | focus on the debhelper interface. |
|---|
| 26 | . |
|---|
| 27 | The config-package-dev modules are optimized for site defaults (i.e. |
|---|
| 28 | configuration for a university or a company), though they are useful |
|---|
| 29 | for other applications as well. |
