DESCRIPTION
This module collects information on a yet to be created Debian or RPM package. The information is obtained from a CPANPLUS::Module object, the file system and the environment. Among other things, the module gets the package name, a short summary, a description, the license and the dependencies.
SUBROUTINES/METHODS

format_priority Abstract
my $priority = CPANPLUS::Dist::Debora::Package->format_priority;
Checks whether the package format is available. Returns 0 if the required package tools are not available, 1 if the tools are available and 2 or higher if the format is the operating system's native format.

BUGS AND LIMITATIONS
Some operating systems numify Perl distribution versions but not consistently. This module sticks closely to the version string, which seems to be the most common approach.
This module cannot be used in taint mode.
