DEVSCRIPTS.CONF(5)                     File Formats Manual                     DEVSCRIPTS.CONF(5)

NAME
       devscripts.conf - configuration file for the devscripts package

DESCRIPTION
       The  devscripts package provides a collection of scripts which may be of use to Debian de-
       velopers and others wishing to build Debian packages.  Many of these  have  options  which
       can be configured on a system-wide and per-user basis.

       Every  script in the devscripts package which makes use of values from these configuration
       files describes the specific settings recognised in its own manpage.  (For a list  of  the
       scripts,  either  see /usr/share/doc/devscripts/README.gz or look at the output of dpkg -L
       devscripts | grep /usr/bin.)

       The two configuration files are /etc/devscripts.conf for system-wide defaults  and  ~/.de-
       vscripts  for  per-user  settings.   They are written with bash(1) syntax, but should only
       have comments and simple variable assignments in them; they are both sourced (if  present)
       by many of the devscripts scripts.  Variables corresponding to simple switches should have
       one of the values yes and no; any other setting is regarded as equivalent to  the  default
       setting.

       All variable names are written in uppercase, and begin with the script name.  Package-wide
       variables begin with "DEVSCRIPTS", and are listed below, as well as in the  relevant  man-
       pages.

       For  a  list of all of the available options variables, along with their default settings,
       see the example configuration file /usr/share/doc/devscripts/devscripts.conf.ex.  This  is
       copied  to  /etc/devscripts.conf when the devscripts package is first installed.  Informa-
       tion about configuration options introduced in newer versions of the package will  be  ap-
       pended to /etc/devscripts.conf when the package is upgraded.

       Every  script  which  reads  the configuration files can be forced to ignore them by using
       --no-conf as the first command-line option.

PACKAGE-WIDE VARIABLES
       The currently recognised package-wide variables are:

       DEVSCRIPTS_CHECK_DIRNAME_LEVEL, DEVSCRIPTS_CHECK_DIRNAME_REGEX
              These variables control scripts which change directory to find  a  debian/changelog
              file  or  suchlike,  and  some  other miscellaneous cases.  In order to prevent un-
              wanted, even possibly dangerous, behaviour, these variables  control  when  actions
              will  be  performed.   The scripts which currently make use of these variables are:
              debc, debchange/dch, debclean, debi, debrelease, debuild and uscan, but  this  list
              may  change  with time (and I may not remember to update this manpage).  Please see
              the manpages of individual scripts for details of the specific behaviour  for  each
              script.
