+
+deb-override - Debian archive override file
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+B<override>
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+While most information about a package can be found in the control file,
+some is managed centrally by the distribution czars rather than by the
+maintainer in order to offer some global consistency.
+This information is found in the override file.
+
+The override file has a simple whitespace-delimited format. Comments are
+allowed (denoted with a
+B<#>).
+
+=over
+
+I<package>
+I<priority>
+I<section>
+[I<maintainer-info>]
+
+=back
+
+I<package>
+is the name of the package. Entries in the override file for packages
+not found in the tree of binary packages are ignored.
+
+I<priority>
+and
+I<section>
+correspond to the respective control fields available in the .deb. The
+allowed values are specific to each distribution archive.
+
+I<maintainer-info>,
+if present, can be either the name of a maintainer for an unconditional
+override, or else
+I<old-maintainer>
+B<=E<gt>>
+I<new-maintainer>
+to perform a substitution.
+
+The override files used to make the official Packages lists may be found
+in the
+I<indices>
+directory on any Debian mirror.
