Description-en: strips translations and alters maintainers during build
pkgbinarymangler consists of a dpkg-deb wrapper that calls the following
helper applications while building a debian binary package:
.
pkgstriptranslations removes all *.mo files in /usr/share/locale from
all package build directories. It is used to strip off gettext translations
from generated binary packages, because translations are already shipped
in the language packs. Its behaviour (which is disabled by default) is
configured in /etc/pkgbinarymangler/striptranslations.conf.
.
pkgmaintainermangler adjusts the maintainer field in binary packages to
match a set of rules (including whitelists, mass renames by component,
maintainer name, etc) defined in the pkgmaintainermangler configuration
file at /etc/pkgbinarymangler/maintainermangler.conf.
