Many of these have options which  can  be\nconfigured on a system-wide and per-user basis.\n\nEvery  script  in  the  devscripts package which makes use of values from these configuration\nfiles describes the specific settings recognised in its own manpage.   (For  a  list  of  the\nscripts,  either see /usr/share/doc/devscripts/README.gz or look at the output of dpkg -L de‐\nvscripts | grep /usr/bin.)\n\nThe two configuration files are /etc/devscripts.conf  for  system-wide  defaults  and  ~/.de‐\nvscripts  for  per-user settings.  They are written with bash(1) syntax, but should only have\ncomments and simple variable assignments in them; they are both sourced (if present) by  many\nof the devscripts scripts.  Variables corresponding to simple switches should have one of the\nvalues yes and no; any other setting is regarded as equivalent to the default setting.\n\nAll variable names are written in uppercase, and begin with the  script  name.   Package-wide\nvariables begin with \"DEVSCRIPTS\", and are listed below, as well as in the relevant manpages.\n\nFor  a list of all of the available options variables, along with their default settings, see\nthe example configuration file /usr/share/doc/devscripts/devscripts.conf.ex.  This is  copied\nto  /etc/devscripts.conf  when  the devscripts package is first installed.  Information about\nconfiguration options introduced in newer  versions  of  the  package  will  be  appended  to\n/etc/devscripts.conf when the package is upgraded.\n\nEvery  script which reads the configuration files can be forced to ignore them by using --no-\nconf as the first command-line option.\n",
