✨ debianize-vdrplugin ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the General Commands Manual page for debianize-vdrplugin — section 1, the manual name is right there in the title, we love a self-intro 💅

🎀 NAME 🎀

debianize-vdrplugin — debianize a VDR plugin source archive

like. it debianizes your VDR plugin. that's the whole thing. iconic.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so debianize-vdrplugin can be used to add a working debian-directory to the source-directory of a vdr-plugin. that's it, that's the job, and it eats every time 🔥

the way you have to run it: debianize-vdrplugin should be called directly from a plugin-source-directory. not from your home folder, not from /tmp, not from wherever your terminal happens to be vibing. be in the plugin source directory. periodt.

🫶 after debianize-vdrplugin was run, you should check the files inside the debian-directory to see if they fit your needs, and modify them accordingly. it's giving "starter pack," not "final draft" — do a vibe check on those files before you ship anything, fr fr.

and then?? the next step to get a debian-package for the vdr-plugin is to call dpkg-buildpackage 💖

heads up: you need the package dpkg-dev for this tool. no dpkg-dev, no build. that's the rule, no cap.
