Fields are delimited +only by field tags. In other words, field text may be multiple lines +in length, but the tools will join lines when processing the body of +the field. + +The file should be named according to the vendor name. +The usual convention is to name the vendor file using the vendor name +in all lowercase, but some variation is permitted. +Namely, spaces are mapped to dashes (‘\fB\-\fP’), and the file +can have the same casing as the value in \fBVendor\fP field, or it can +be capitalized. +.SH FIELDS +.TP +.BR Vendor: " \fIvendor-name\fP (required)" +The value of this field determines the vendor name. +.TP +.BI Vendor\-URL: " vendor-url" +The value of this field determines the vendor URL. +.TP +.BI Bugs: " bug-url" +The value of this field determines the type and address of the bug +tracking system used by this vendor. It can be a mailto URL or a +debbugs URL (e.g., debbugs://bugs.debian.org/). +.TP +.BI Parent: " vendor-name" +The value of this field determines the vendor name of the vendor that +this vendor derives from. +.SH EXAMPLE +.nf +Vendor: Debian +Vendor\-URL: https://www.debian.org/ +Bugs: debbugs://bugs.debian.org +.fi +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR dpkg\-vendor (1) |
