Description of the change
Hi,
Here's a small branch to reduce the number of required info elements.
Most things can have a default that will work, even if it's not useful information
(e.g. maintainer.) This will make it easier for backend authors to get started.
The only remaining required element is the package name. That could be given
a default of "package" or something, but I think that's going a bit far.
Thanks,
James

What do you think about taking the email default from email.utils. formataddr( ) on the DEBEMAIL and DEBFULLNAME envars if they exist? Perhaps fall back to $NAME for the latter?
