Config::Model::models::Dpkg::Copyright - Configuration class Dpkg::Copyright
Configuration classes used by Config::Model
Machine-readable debian/copyright. Parameters from former version of DEP-5 are
flagged as deprecated. The idea is to enable migration from older specs to
CANDIDATE spec.
To edit a copyright file, go into your package development directory and run:
cme edit dpkg-copyright
To check you file run:
cme check dpkg-copyright
To upgrade your file from an old spec, run:
cme migrate dpkg-copyright
URI of the format specification.
Mandatory. Type uniline.
- default value :
- https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/
The name upstream uses for the software.
Optional. Type uniline.
Note: Upstream-Name is migrated with '$name' and with:
- •
- $name => "- Name"
The preferred address(es) to reach the upstream project. May be free-form text,
but by convention will usually be written as a list of RFC5822 addresses or
URIs.
Optional. Type list of uniline.
Note: Upstream-Contact values are migrated from '- Upstream-Maintainer'
An explanation from where the upstream source came from. Typically this would be
a URL, but it might be a free-form explanation. The Debian Policy, 12.5
requires this information unless there are no upstream sources, which is
mainly the case for native Debian packages. If the upstream source has been
modified to remove non-free parts, that should be explained in this field.
Optional. Type string.
Note: Source is migrated with '"$old || $older ;"' and with:
- •
- $old => "- Upstream-Source"
- •
- $older => "- Original-Source-Location"
This field can be used in the case of non-free and contrib packages (see [Policy
12.5](
http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-docs.html#s-copyrightfile))
Optional. Type string.
This field can provide additional information. For example, it might quote an
e-mail from upstream justifying why the license is acceptable to the main
archive, or an explanation of how this version of the package has been forked
from a version known to be DFSG-free, even though the current upstream version
is not.
Optional. Type string.
Note: Comment is migrated with '$old' and with:
- •
- $old => "- X-Comment"
Copyright information for the package as a whole, which may be different or
simplified from a combination of all the per-file copyright information. See
also Copyright below in the Files paragraph section.
Optional. Type
string.
Patterns indicating files having the same license and sharing copyright holders.
See files pattern documentation
<
https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/#files-field>
for details.
Optional. Type hash of node of class Dpkg::Copyright::Content
.
White space separated list of file patterns to exclude from the package. This
field is only used by uscan. Example: "*/Makefile.in aclocal.m4".
