cvs-debc(1)



NAME

   cvs-debc  -  view  contents of a cvs-buildpackage/cvs-debuild generated
   package

SYNOPSIS

   cvs-debc [options] [package ...]

DESCRIPTION

   cvs-debc is run from the CVS working directory  after  cvs-buildpackage
   or  cvs-debuild.   It  uses  the  cvs-buildpackage system to locate the
   .changes file generated in that  run.   It  then  displays  information
   about the .deb files which were generated in that run, by running dpkg-
   deb -I and dpkg-deb -c on every .deb archive  listed  in  the  .changes
   file, assuming that all of the .deb archives live in the same directory
   as the .changes file.  It is useful  for  ensuring  that  the  expected
   files have ended up in the Debian package.

   If  a  list  of  packages is given on the command line, then only those
   debs with names in this list of packages will be processed.

   Note that unlike cvs-buildpackage, the only way to specify  the  source
   package  name  is  with the -P option; you cannot simply have it as the
   last command-line parameter.

OPTIONS

   All current cvs-buildpackage options are  silently  accepted;  however,
   only the ones listed below have any effect.  For more details on all of
   them, see the cvs-buildpackage(1) manpage.

   -adebian-architecture, -tGNU-system-type
          See dpkg-architecture(1) for a  description  of  these  options.
          They affect the search for the .changes file.  They are provided
          to mimic the behaviour of dpkg-buildpackage when determining the
          name of the .changes file.

   -Mmodule
          The name of the CVS module.

   -Ppackage
          The name of the package.

   -Vversion
          The version number of the package.

   -Ttag  The CVS tag to use for exporting sources.

   -Rroot directory
          Root of the original sources archive.

   -Wwork directory
          The full path name for the cvs-buildpackage working directory.

   -xprefix
          This option provides the CVS default module prefix.

   --help, --version
          Show help message and version information respectively.
