+Lines in this file correspond to L<dpkg-maintscript-helper(1)> commands and
+parameters. Any shell metacharacters will be escaped, so arbitrary shell
+code cannot be inserted here. For example, a line such as C<mv_conffile
+/etc/oldconffile /etc/newconffile> will insert maintainer script snippets
+into all maintainer scripts sufficient to move that conffile.

+A versioned Pre-Dependency on dpkg is needed to use
+L<dpkg-maintscript-helper(1)>. An appropriate Pre-Dependency is
+set in ${misc:Pre-Depends} ; you should make sure to put that token into
+an appropriate place in your debian/contorl file.
