NAME

       pkgmaintainermangler  -  change the Debian Maintainer field in a binary
       package during the build

SYNOPSIS

       pkgmaintainermangler directory

DESCRIPTION

       pkgmaintainermangler adjusts the maintainer field in binary packages to
       match  a set of rules defined in the pkgmaintainermangler configuration
       file, found at /etc/pkgbinarymangler/maintainermangler.conf.

       The directory option tells pkgmaintainermangler where to find the build
       directory   which   contains   DEBIAN/control,  so  it  can  mangle  it
       appropriately.  As pkgmaintainermangler is  generally  invoked  from  a
       dpkg-deb(1)  wrapper,  it  will  also  accept  dpkg-deb’s  command-line
       syntax, ignoring superfluous options.

       By default, pkgmaintainermangler is inactive. To enable it, the  enable
       option in the configuration file must be set to true.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       NO_PKG_MANGLE
              If   this   variable   is   set   to   a  nonempty  value,  then
              pkgmaintainermangler is disabled. This is most useful if  source
              packages build nested binary packages as part of their build.
