NAME

DhMakePerl - create Debian source package from CPAN dist

VERSION

Version 0.56

SYNOPSIS

TO BE FILLED

    use DhMakePerl;

    my $foo = DhMakePerl->new();
    ...

METHODS

main_file(file_name)

Constructs a file name relative to the main source directory, "main_dir"

debian_file(file_name)

Constructs a file name relative to the debian/ subdurectory of the main source directory.

configure_cpan

Configure CPAN module. It is safe to call this method more than once, it will do nothing if CPAN is already configured.

find_cpan_module

Returns CPAN::Module object that corresponds to the supplied argument. Returns undef if no module is found by CPAN.

add_quilt( $control )

Plugs quilt into debian/rules and debian/control. Depends on debian/rules being in DH7 three-liner format. Also bumps the debhelper build-dependency to 7.0.50 (the first version to support overrides) and adds debian/README.source documenting quilt usage.

drop_quilt( $control )

removes quilt from debian/rules and debian/control. Expects that was used to add quilt to debian/rules.

If debian/README.source exists, references to quilt are removed from it (and the file removed if empty after that).
