+.SH NAME
+deb\-origin \- Vendor-specific information files
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.BI %PKGCONFDIR%/origins/ filename
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The files in \fB%PKGCONFDIR%/origins\fP can provide information about
+various vendors who are providing Debian packages.
+
+They contain a number of fields, or comments when the line starts with
+‘\fB#\fP’.
+Each field begins with a tag, such as \fBVendor\fP or \fBParent\fP,
+followed by a colon and the body of the field. 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.
