NAME
       deb-origin - Vendor-specific information files

SYNOPSIS
       /etc/dpkg/origins/filename

DESCRIPTION
       The  files  in  /etc/dpkg/origins can provide information about various
       vendors who are providing Debian packages. They	contain	 a  number  of
       fields,	or  comments when the line starts with '#'.  Each field begins
       with a tag, such as Vendor or Parent, followed by a colon and the  body
       of  the field. Fields are delimited only by field tags. In other words,
       field text may be multiple lines in length, but	the  tools  will  join
       lines when processing the body of the field.

REQUIRED FIELDS
       Vendor: vendor-name
	      The value of this field determines the vendor name.

OPTIONAL FIELDS
       Vendor-URL: vendor-url
	      The value of this field determines the vendor URL.

       Bugs: bug-url
	      The  value  of this field determines the type and address of the
	      bug tracking system used by this vendor. It can be a mailto  URL
	      or a debbugs URL (e.g., debbugs://bugs.debian.org/).

       Parent: vendor-name
	      The value of this field determines the vendor name of the vendor
	      that this vendor derives from.

EXAMPLE
       Vendor: Debian
       Vendor-URL: http://www.debian.org/
       Bugs: debbugs://bugs.debian.org
