15 Description: Debhelper (and CDBS) modules for building configuration packages
16 This package contains a system of modules for creating Debian
17 configuration packages: packages that configure an existing Debian
18 system by using dpkg-divert on configuration files. These modules
19 attempt to make the process of creating configuration packages
20 efficient by checking the md5sums of upstream configuration files
21 that are to be modified and automatically generating the relevant
22 postinst code to perform the diversions using the standard debhelper
23 mechanism. In addition to a debhelper command and sequencer extension
24 module, CDBS modules are also included, but future development will
25 focus on the debhelper interface.
26 .
27 The config-package-dev modules are optimized for site defaults (i.e.
28 configuration for a university or a company), though they are useful
29 for other applications as well.
