NAME

       deb-override - Debian archive override file

SYNOPSIS

       override

DESCRIPTION

       While most information about a package can be found in the control file, some is managed centrally by the distribution czars rather than by
       the maintainer in order to offer some global consistency.  This information is found in the override file.

       The override file has a simple whitespace-delimited format. Comments are allowed (denoted with a #).

	    package priority section [maintainerinfo]

       package is the name of the package. Entries in the override file for packages not found in the tree of binary packages are ignored.

       priority and section correspond to the respective control  fields  available  in  the  .deb.  The  allowed  values  are	specific  to  each
       distribution archive.

       maintainerinfo, if present, can be either the name of a maintainer for an unconditional override, or else oldmaintainer => newmaintainer to
       perform a substitution.

       The override files used to make the official Packages lists may be found in the indices directory on any Debian mirror.
