NAME
       setup-packaging-environment - helps one to get started with Ubuntu development

SYNOPSIS
       setup-packaging-environment

DESCRIPTION
       setup-packaging-environment  aims to make it more straightforward for new contributors to get their Ubuntu installation ready for packaging
       work. It ensures that all four components from Ubuntu's official repositories are enabled along with their corresponding  source  reposito-
       ries.  It  also	installs  a  minimal  set  of  packages  needed  for Ubuntu packaging work (ubuntu-dev-tools, devscripts, debhelper, cdbs,
       patchutils, pbuilder, and build-essential). Finally, it assists in defining the DEBEMAIL and DEBFULLNAME environment variables.
