* Package name    : lazbuild
   Version         : 4.8

   Programming Lang: Pascal
   Description     : Build lazarus packages for any widget set

  Packages can be built for any supported widget sets
  if appropriate libraries are installed.
  Lazarus supports GTK1, GTK2, GTK3, Qt4, Qt5, Qt6.
  This package is solely for use as a build dependency.
  It is not intended for Lazarus development (Use the IDE).

This is a minimal package, with a single binary.
Compared to the lazarus package,
it has a 27 line d/rules file instead of 314,
and 9 files in the debian folder instead of 47.

I will maintain the package myself inside the Pascal Packaging Team.


Regards,
Peter B
