NAME

cdd-gen-control - generate debian/control file from tasks directory

SYNOPSIS

cdd-gen-control [ options ] [ project ]

DESCRIPTION

The script cdd-gen-control parses the tasks directory for text files which have a similar syntax to debian/control files. Each text file is used as template for a <cdd>-<textfile_name> meta package and has to define the dependencies. In addition there is a further tag named Task which is mandatory and is used later as registry of all tasks in /usr/share/cdd/tasks/<cdd> .

OPTIONS

-c

Create debian/control file using template debian/control.stub.

-d

Turn on debugging mode.

-a

Print all available packages.

-e

Print excluded packages.

-m

Print missing packages.

-s <dist>

Without the -s option /etc/cdd/sources.list is used to verify which packages are available. You can specify one of stable , testing or unstable as argument or a complete path to a valid sources.list file.
