** Moved to Debian's gitlab

With version 0.004, I've added a feature to edit =debian/control=
file. This feature relies on =Config::Model::Dpkg= (aka
[[https://salsa.debian.org/perl-team/modules/packages/libconfig-model-dpkg-perl][libconfig-model-dpkg-perl]]) which is only available in Debian.

Which means that this module is no longer suitable for CPAN.

For CPAN, I've reverted the Debian only change and released version 0.005.

Any further development of this module will be done
on [[https://salsa.debian.org/perl-team/modules/packages/libdist-zilla-app-command-authordebs-perl][Debian Perl Group / libdist-zilla-app-command-authordebs]].

No new release will be done on CPAN.

** What is dist-zilla-app-command-authordebs ?

It's a [[http://dzil.org/][Dist::Zilla]] command to list or install author
dependencies with Debian perl packages.

This command is useful to work on the source of a Perl module that
uses =Dist::Zilla=. This list or install missing author dependencies,
i.e. mostly =Dist::Zilla= dependencies.

These dependencies can be used in Debian's =BuildDepends= list. Note
that other dependencies (runtime or used in tests) are not handled.

To install the author dependencies (i,e, all the =Dist::Zilla= plugins
and extensions) required to build a module, run either:

#+begin_src shell
  dzil authordebs --install  # require sudo to allow apt-get install
#+end_src

#+begin_src shell
  sudo apt-get install $(dzil authordebs)
#+end_src

The former command is preferred as only =apt-get= command is run as
root.
