  22. deb\-origin \- Vendor-specific information files
    23. 

  23. .SH SYNOPSIS
    24. 

  24. .BI %PKGCONFDIR%/origins/ filename
    25. 

  25. .SH DESCRIPTION
    26. 

  26. The files in \fB%PKGCONFDIR%/origins\fP can provide information about
    27. 

  27. various vendors who are providing Debian packages.
    28. 

  28. 

  29. They contain a number of fields, or comments when the line starts with
    30. 

  30. ‘\fB#\fP’.
    31. 

  31. Each field begins with a tag, such as \fBVendor\fP or \fBParent\fP,
    32. 

  32. followed by a colon and the body of the field. Fields are delimited
    33. 

  33. only by field tags. In other words, field text may be multiple lines
    34. 

  34. in length, but the tools will join lines when processing the body of
    35. 

  35. the field.
    36. 

  36. 

  37. The file should be named according to the vendor name.
    38. 

  38. The usual convention is to name the vendor file using the vendor name
    39. 

  39. in all lowercase, but some variation is permitted.
    40. 

  40. Namely, spaces are mapped to dashes (‘\fB\-\fP’), and the file
    41. 

  41. can have the same casing as the value in \fBVendor\fP field, or it can
    42. 

  42. be capitalized.
    43.
