dpkg-scansources - create Sources index files
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
B<dpkg-scansources>
|
|
[I<option>...] I<binary-dir>
|
|
[I<override-file>
|
|
[I<path-prefix>]]
|
|
B<E<gt>>
|
|
I<Sources>
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
B<dpkg-scansources> scans the given I<binary-dir> for I<.dsc> files.
|
|
These are used to create a Debian source index, which is output to
|
|
stdout.
|
|
|
|
The I<override-file>, if given, is used to set priorities in the resulting
|
|
index stanzas and to override the maintainer field given in the I<.dsc>
|
|
files.
|
|
The file can be compressed (since dpkg 1.15.5).
|
|
See
|
|
L<deb-override(5)>
|
|
for the format of this file.
|
|
|
|
B<Note>: Since
|
|
the override file is indexed by binary, not source packages, there's a bit
|
|
of a problem here.
|
|
The current implementation uses the highest priority of
|
|
all the binary packages produced by a I<.dsc> file for the priority of the
|
|
source package, and the override entry for the first binary package listed
|
|
in the I<.dsc> file to modify maintainer information.
|
|
This might change.
|
|
|
|
The I<path-prefix>, if given, is prepended to the directory field in the
|
|
generated source index.
|
|
You generally use this to make the directory
|
|
fields contain the path from the top of the Debian archive hierarchy.
|
|
|
|
B<Note>:
|
|
If you want to access the generated Sources file with
|
|
L<apt(8)>
|
|
you will probably need to compress the file with
|
|
L<gzip(1)>
|
|
(generating a Sources.gz file).
|
|
L<apt(8)>
|
|
ignores uncompressed Sources files except on local access (i.e.
|
|
B<file://>
|
|
sources).
|
|
|
|
=head1 OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
=over
|
|
|
|
=item B<-n>, B<--no-sort>
|
|
|
|
Do not sort the index stanzas.
|
|
Normally they are sorted by source package name.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-e>, B<--extra-override> I<file>
|
|
|
|
Scan I<file> to find supplementary overrides (since dpkg 1.15.4;
|
|
the file can be compressed since dpkg 1.15.5).
|
|
See
|
|
L<deb-extra-override(5)>
|
|
for more information on its format.
|
|
|
|
=item B<-s>, B<--source-override> I<file>
|
|
|
|
Use I<file> as the source override file (the file can be compressed
|
|
since dpkg 1.15.5).
|
|
The default is the name of the override file you specified with I<.src>
|
|
appended.
|
|
|
|
The source override file is in a different format from the binary override
|
|
file.
|
|
It contains only two whitespace separated fields,
|
|
the first is the source package name and the second is the section.
|
|
Blank lines and comment lines are ignored in the normal manner.
|
|
If a package appears in both files
|
|
the source override takes precedence for setting the section.
|
|
|
|
=item B<--debug>
|
|
|
|
Turn debugging on.
|
|
|
|
=item B<--help>
|
|
|
|
Show the usage message and exit.
|
|
|
|
=item B<--version>
|
|
|
|
Show the version and exit.

|
|
|
|
=item B<DPKG_COLORS>
|
|
|
|
Sets the color mode (since dpkg 1.18.5).
|
|
The currently accepted values are: B<auto> (default), B<always> and
|
|
B<never>.
|
|
|
|
=item B<DPKG_NLS>
|
|
|
|
If set, it will be used to decide whether to activate Native Language Support,
|
|
also known as internationalization (or i18n) support (since dpkg 1.19.0).
|
|
The accepted values are: B<0> and B<1> (default).
