 %description
-ops2deb is designed to generate Debian packages for common devops tools, but
-can be used to package any portable application. It consumes a configuration
-file and outputs .deb packages. ops2deb can also track new releases of upstream
-applications and automatically bump application versions in its configuration
-file.
