# debianize-vdrplugin(1)

debianize a VDR plugin source archive

## NAME

debianize-vdrplugin - debianize a VDR plugin source archive

## DESCRIPTION

**debianize-vdrplugin** can be used to add a working debian-directory to the source-directory  of a vdr-plugin.

**debianize-vdrplugin** should be called directly from a plugin-source-directory.

After **debianize-vdrplugin** was run, you should check the files inside the debian-directory if they  fit your needs, and modify them accordingly.

The next step to get a debian-package for the vdr-plugin is to call **dpkg-buildpackage** (You need the package  **dpkg-dev** for this tool.)
