Control file
============
-The master control file debian/control must be generated before
-the package is uploaded. debian/rules contains the debian/control
-target, which generates the control file by invoking the
-debian/bin/gencontrol.py script, which combines the templates from
-the templates directory and architecture-specific defines.toml file to
-produce the debian/control file. Note that this target is intentionally
-made to fail with a non-zero exit code to make sure that it is never
-run during an automatic build. The following variables are substituted
-into the templates:
