SYNOPSIS

xcontrol build
xcontrol check

DESCRIPTION

xcontrol rewrites the debian/xcontrol file in a Debian source package into a policy-compliant debian/control file, omitting any information that cannot be expressed properly. This allows the maintainer to easily synchronize debian/control to the more verbose debian/xcontrol.

OPTIONS

Currently, only two subcommands are allowed:

build

Read debian/xcontrol, output policy-compliant version on stdout.

check

Verify whether debian/control is up to date.
