NAME

       DhMakePerl::Command::Packaging - common routines for 'make' and 'refresh' dh-make-perl
       commands

METHODS

       main_file(file_name)
           Constructs a file name relative to the main source directory, "main_dir"

       debian_file(file_name)
           Constructs a file name relative to the debian/ sub-directory of the main source
           directory.

       explained_dependency $reason, $dependencies, @dependencies
           Adds the list of dependencies to $dependencies and shows $reason if in verbose mode.

           Used to both bump a dependency and tell the user why.

           $dependencies is an instance of Debian::Dependencies class, and @dependencies is a
           list of Debian::Dependency instances or strings.

           The message printed looks like "$reason needs @dependencies".

       configure_cpan
           Configure CPAN module. It is safe to call this method more than once, it will do
           nothing if CPAN is already configured.

       discover_dependencies
           Just a wrapper around $self->control->discover_dependencies which provides the right
           parameters to it.

           Returns a list of missing modules.

       discover_utility_deps
           Determines whether certain versions of debhelper(1) and other packages are needed by
           the build process.

           The following special cases are detected:

           Module::Build::Tiny
               if Module::Build::Tiny is present in the build-dependencies, debhelper dependency
               is raised to 9.20140227~ in case it was lower before.

           dh --with=quilt
               "dh --with=quilt" needs quilt.

           quilt.make
               If /usr/share/quilt/quilt.make is included in debian/rules, a build-dependency on
               "quilt" is added.

           dh --with=perl_dbi
               A build dependency on "libdbi-perl" is added.

           dh --with=perl_openssl
               A build dependency on "perl-openssl-defaults" is added.

       makefile_pl_is_MBC
           Checks if Makefile.PL is a compatibility wrapper around Build.PL provided by
           Module::Build::Compat.

       backup_file(file_name)
           Creates a backup copy of the specified file by adding ".bak" to its name. If the
           backup already exists, it is overwritten.

           Does nothing unless the "backups" option is set.

       unquote(string)
           Runs its argument through Text::Balanced's "extract_quotelike" method and returns the
           extracted content with quotes removed. Dies if "extract_quotelike" can't find quoted
           string.

       create_upstream_metadata
           Populates debian/upstream/metadata with information from META, using
           Debian::Upstream::Metadata::Perl.

       cme_fix_dpkg_control
           The equivalent of letting cme(1) reformat and fix debian/control.
