       Configuration classes used by Config::Model

       Machine-readable debian/copyright. Parameters from former version of DEP-5 are flagged as deprecated. The
       idea is to enable migration from older specs to CANDIDATE spec.

       To edit a copyright file, go into your package development directory and run:

         cme edit dpkg-copyright

       To check you file run:

         cme check dpkg-copyright

       To upgrade your file from an old spec, run:

         cme migrate dpkg-copyright

Format
       URI of the format specification.  Mandatory.Typeuniline.

       default value :
           https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/

   Source
       An explanation from where the upstream source came from. Typically this would be a URL, but it might be a
       free-form  explanation.  The  Debian  Policy, 12.5 requires this information unless there are no upstream
       sources, which is mainly the case for native Debian packages. If the upstream source has been modified to
       remove non-free parts, that should be explained in this field.  Optional.Typestring.

       Note: Source is migrated with '"$old || $older ;"' and with:

       •   $old => "- Upstream-Source"

       •   $older => "- Original-Source-Location"

   Upstream-Name
       The name upstream uses for the software.  Optional.Typeuniline.

       Note: Upstream-Name is migrated with '$name' and with:

       •   $name => "- Name"

   Upstream-Contact
       The preferred address(es) to reach the upstream project. May be free-form text, but  by  convention  will
       usually be written as a list of RFC5822 addresses or URIs.  Optional.Typelistofuniline.

       Note: Upstream-Contact values are migrated from '- Upstream-Maintainer'

   Disclaimer
       This   field   can   be  used  in  the  case  of  non-free  and  contrib  packages  (see  [Policy  12.5](
       http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-docs.html#s-copyrightfile))  Optional.Typestring.Comment
       This field can provide additional information. For example,  it  might  quote  an  e-mail  from  upstream
       justifying  why  the  license is acceptable to the main archive, or an explanation of how this version of
       the package has been forked from a version known to  be  DFSG-free,  even  though  the  current  upstream
       version is not.  Optional.Typestring.

       Note: Comment is migrated with '$old' and with:

       •   $old => "- X-Comment"

   Copyright
       Copyright information for the package as a whole, which may be different or simplified from a combination
       of  all  the  per-file  copyright  information.  See also Copyright below in the Files paragraph section.
       Optional.Typestring.Files
       Patterns indicating files having the same license and  sharing  copyright  holders.   See  files  pattern
       documentation     <https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/#files-field>    for
       details.  Optional.TypehashofnodeofclassDpkg::Copyright::Content.Files-Excluded
       White space separated list of file patterns to exclude from the package.  This  field  is  only  used  by
       uscan.       Example:       "*/Makefile.in       aclocal.m4".       See       also      UscanEnhancements

       Line(s)  containing  the  preferred address(es) to reach current upstream maintainer(s). May be free-form
