  Description     : checks URLs in debian/control and debian/upstream files

duck  extracts  links  and  VCS-* entries from

debian/control
debian/upstream
debian/upstream-metadata.yaml
debian/upstream/metadata

It tries to access those VCS-* entries and URLs using the approriate tool and
tries to find out wether  the given URLs or entries are broken or working. If
errors are detected, the  filename,  fieldname and URL of the broken link/URL
are displayed.
