+=head1 NAME
+
+waitfordeb - watch incoming directory for debian package upload completion
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+waitfordeb changesfile
+
+waitfordeb -m|--man
+           -h|--help
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+In an ideal world every package maintainer would use a tool which reliably
+uploads the changes file as the last file. But sometimes this does not happen
+and reprepro may fail the import.
