haskell-debian-utils

Various helpers to work with Debian packages

This package contains tools shipped with the Haskell library “debian”: * fakechanges: Sometimes you have the .debs, .dsc, .tar.gz, .diff.gz, etc from a package build, but not the .changes file. This package lets you create a fake .changes file in case you need one. * debian-report: Analyze Debian repositories and generate reports about their contents and relations. For example, a list of all packages in a distribution that are trumped by another distribution. * apt-get-build-depends: Tool which will parse the Build-Depends{-Indep} lines from debian/control and apt-get install the required packages
