forward-bug(1) Forward Debian bug to CPAN's request tracker

SYNOPSIS


forward-bug BUGNUMBER [DISTRIBUTION]
Examples:
$ forward-bug 555555 Some-Dist # explicitly set dist name
$ forward-bug 32412314 # make f-b read dist name from debian/control

CONFIGURATION

forward-bug.pl read the file "~/.pause" for the configuration. The format is the same that cpan-upload requires: 

  user YOUR-PAUSE-ID
  password YOUR-PAUSE-PASSWORD

If the distribution name is not set from the command-line forward-bug will also look at the "Homepage" field in the "debian/control" file or the "Source" filed in "debian/copyright" and extracts the name from there.
