NAME

Module::Starter::Plugin::DebPackage - Module::Starter plugin which creates debian package config files

VERSION

Version 0.01

ABSTRACT

This is a plugin for Module::Starter that includes a set of skeleton debian package configuration files for the new module. Once the Makefile is generated the package can be built using make deb.

METHODS

create_modules

This method first executes SUPER::create_modules and then creates the debian config files by running create_debian_conf.

create_debian_conf

Creates the debian config files.

This method is creates, populates (using the deb_*_guts methods) and reports progress for all files created by this plugin.

deb_compat_guts

Generate the contents for the compat file.

The compat version is important because the default version used by debhelper is 1 which will generate a incomplete deb.

deb_control_guts

Generate the contents for the control file.

deb_changelog_guts

Generate the contents for the changelog file.

Generate the contents for the copyright file.

This is the normal perl license used by Module::Starter::Simple.

deb_conffiles_guts

Generate the contents for the conffiles file.

This is an empty file - add any configuration files that should not be overwritten during package updates.

deb_rules_guts

Generate the contents for the rules file.
