NAME
    Dpkg::Vendor::Default - default vendor class

DESCRIPTION
    A vendor class is used to provide vendor specific behaviour in various places. This is the
    default class used in case there's none for the current vendor or in case the vendor could not
    be identified (see Dpkg::Vendor documentation).

    It provides some hooks that are called by various dpkg-* tools. If you need a new hook, please
    file a bug against dpkg-dev and explain your need. Note that the hook API has no guarantee to be
    stable over an extended period of time. If you run an important distribution that makes use of
    vendor hooks, you'd better submit them for integration so that we avoid breaking your code.

METHODS
    $vendor_obj = Dpkg::Vendor::Default->new()
        Creates the default vendor object. Can be inherited by all vendor objects if they don't need
        any specific initialization at object creation time.

    $vendor_obj->run_hook($id, @params)
        Run the corresponding hook. The parameters are hook-specific. The supported hooks are:

        before-source-build ($srcpkg)
                The first parameter is a Dpkg::Source::Package object. The hook is called just
                before the execution of $srcpkg->build().

        package-keyrings ()
                The hook is called when dpkg-source is checking a signature on a source package
                (since dpkg 1.18.11). It takes no parameters, but returns a (possibly empty) list of
                vendor-specific keyrings.

        archive-keyrings ()
                The hook is called when there is a need to check signatures on artifacts from
                repositories, for example by a download method (since dpkg 1.18.11). It takes no
                parameters, but returns a (possibly empty) list of vendor-specific keyrings.

        archive-keyrings-historic ()
                The hook is called when there is a need to check signatures on artifacts from
                historic repositories, for example by a download method (since dpkg 1.18.11). It
                takes no parameters, but returns a (possibly empty) list of vendor-specific
                keyrings.

        builtin-build-depends ()
                The hook is called when dpkg-checkbuilddeps is initializing the source package build
                dependencies (since dpkg 1.18.2). It takes no parameters, but returns a (possibly
                empty) list of vendor-specific Build-Depends.

        builtin-build-conflicts ()
                The hook is called when dpkg-checkbuilddeps is initializing the source package build
                conflicts (since dpkg 1.18.2). It takes no parameters, but returns a (possibly
                empty) list of vendor-specific Build-Conflicts.

        register-custom-fields ()
                The hook is called in Dpkg::Control::Fields to register custom fields. You should
                return a list of arrays. Each array is an operation to perform. The first item is
                the name of the operation and corresponds to a field_* function provided by
                Dpkg::Control::Fields. The remaining fields are the parameters that are passed
                unchanged to the corresponding function.

                Known operations are "register", "insert_after" and "insert_before".

        post-process-changelog-entry ($fields)
                The hook is called in Dpkg::Changelog to post-process a Dpkg::Changelog::Entry after
                it has been created and filled with the appropriate values.

        update-buildflags ($flags)
                The hook is called in Dpkg::BuildFlags to allow the vendor to override the default
                values set for the various build flags. $flags is a Dpkg::BuildFlags object.

        update-buildprofiles ($build_profiles_ref)
                The hook is called in Dpkg::BuildProfiles to allow the vendor to override the
                default values set. $build_profiles_ref is a array ref to Dpkg::BuildProfiles
                object.

        builtin-system-build-paths ()
                The hook is called by dpkg-genbuildinfo to determine if the current path should be
                recorded in the Build-Path field (since dpkg 1.18.11). It takes no parameters, but
                returns a (possibly empty) list of root paths considered acceptable. As an example,
                if the list contains "/build/", a Build-Path field will be created if the current
                directory is "/build/dpkg-1.18.0". If the list contains "/", the path will always be
                recorded. If the list is empty, the current path will never be recorded.

        build-tainted-by ()
                The hook is called by dpkg-genbuildinfo to determine if the current system has been
                tainted in some way that could affect the resulting build, which will be recorded in
                the Build-Tainted-By field (since dpkg 1.19.5). It takes no parameters, but returns
                a (possibly empty) list of tainted reason tags (formed by alphanumeric and dash
                characters).

        sanitize-environment ()
                The hook is called by dpkg-buildpackage to sanitize its build environment (since
                dpkg 1.20.0).
