=head1 NAME
scan-copyrights - Scan source file and print lines for debian/copyright files
=head1 SYNOPSIS
# in source package directory
scan-copyrights > debian/copyright.new
meld debian/copyright{,.new}
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This commands use C<licensecheck> command to scan license and copyright
information from source files. The output of licensecheck is parsed to
generate the Files information of C<debian/copyright> files according to
L<Debian specifications|https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/>
=head1 BUGS
Extracting license and copyright data from unstructured comments is not reliable.
User must check manually the files when no copyright info is found or when the
license is unknown.
The required changes can be stored in
C<debian/fill.copyright.blanks.yml> so that future runs of
scan-copyrights will be more accurate. Please see
L<Dpkg::Copyright::Scanner/"Filling the blanks"> for instructions to
write this file.
