WWW::Search in Debian
=====================

For most purposes this package is a standard Debian Perl Group package.
The aspect in which it is special is that some related WWW::Search modules
are bundled together with the main WWW::Search distribution. So long as you
have all of the module tarballs in the correct place and with the correct
names, you can build using dpkg-buildpackage as you would normally.

The libwww-search-perl source package makes use of Multiple Upstream Tarball
(MUT) support in uscan (v4 watch file) and build tools. Running uscan will
download tarballs for each entry ("component") listed in the watch file.

As a result of using MUT support, whenever a component is added or removed,
the following files should be updated to reflect the changes and to allow
uscan to retrieve tarballs correctly:

 - d/control   (build and runtime dependencies)
 - d/copyright (component copyright details)
 - d/gbp.conf  (the component array uses the names defined in d/watch)
 - d/rules     (dh overrides iterate over list of available components)
 - d/watch     (each component is specified with a name)
