.TH DEBC 1 "Debian Utilities" "DEBIAN" \" -*- nroff -*-
.SH NAME
debc \- view contents of a generated Debian package
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBdebc\fP [\fIoptions\fR] [\fIchanges file\fR]
.SH DESCRIPTION
Unless a \fI.changes\fR file is specified on the command line,
\fBdebc\fI has to be called from within the source code directory
tree. In this case, it will look for the \fI.changes\fR file
corresponding to the current package version (by determining the name
and version number from the changelog, and the architecture in the
same way as \fBdpkg-buildpackage\fR(1) does). It then runs
\fBdpkg-deb \-I\fR and \fBdpkg-deb \-c\fR on every \fI.deb\fR archive
listed in the \fI.changes\fR file to display information about the
contents of the \fI.deb\fR files. It precedes every \fI.deb\fR file
with the name of the file. It assumes that all of the \fI.deb\fR
archives live in the same directory as the \fI.changes\fR file. It is
useful for ensuring that the expected files have ended up in the
Debian package.
