=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
deb-extra-override - Debian archive extra override file
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
B<override>
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
While most information about a binary/source package can be found in the
|
|
control/.dsc file, all of it can be overridden when it's exported to
|
|
Packages/Sources files.
|
|
The extra override file contains those overrides.
|
|
|
|
The extra override file has a simple whitespace-delimited format.
|
|
Comments are
|
|
allowed (denoted with a
|
|
B<#>).

I<value>

|
|
|
=back
|
|
|
|
I<package>
|
|
is the name of the binary/source package.
|
|
|
|
I<field-name>
|
|
is the name of the field that is overridden.
|
|
|
|
I<value>
|
|
is the value to put in the field.
|
|
It can contain spaces as the line is split
|
|
in no more than 3 columns when it's parsed.
|
|
|
|
The extra override files used to make the official Packages lists may be found
|
|
in the
|
|
I<indices>
|
|
directory on any Debian mirror.
