Done.

To add a tarball to the pristine-tar branch, you can do the following:

$ uscan --download-current-version --verbose

$ pristine-tar commit ../puppet-module-puppetlabs-inifile_1.0.0.orig.tar.gz

$ git push origin pristine-tar

Good.  I'll upload it.  I have a few comments for later packaging and
updates.


You may want to add a section for the packaging (debian/*) in
debian/copyright, with a license for the packaging.  I usually use the
same license as the upstream work.  Not sure how strict the FTP-master
are about that.  I guess we'll find out. :)


Also, should we add a standardised
/usr/share/doc/${package}/README.Debian?

It could say something like:

 This package contains a module for use by puppet.  It is
 automatically added to the module load path of puppet's default
 environment, and should be ready for use.

 You can use "update-alternatives --config puppet-module-<modulename>"
 to configure which module should appear in the module path of the
 default puppet environment, in case multiple modules which provide
 the same name are installed.
