Debian::Control::Stanza::Binary - binary stanza of Debian source package control file
my $bin = Debian::Control::Stanza::Binary->new(\%data); print $bin; # auto-stringification print $bin->Depends; # Debian::Dependencies object
Debian::Control::Stanza::Binary can be used for representation and manipulation of Package: stanza of Debian source package control files in an object-oriented way. Converts itself to a textual representation in string context.
Package:
The supported fields for binary stanzas are listed below. For more information about each field's meaning, consult the section named Source package control files -- debian/control of the Debian Policy Manual at https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/
Source package control files -- debian/control
Note that real control fields may contain dashes in their names. These are replaced with underscores.
Depends, Conflicts Breaks, Recommends, Suggests, Enhances, Replaces, and Pre_Depends fields are converted to objects of Debian::Dependencies class upon construction.
Depends
Conflicts
Breaks
Recommends
Suggests
Enhances
Replaces
Pre_Depends
Two more accessor methods are provided for easier handling of package's short and long description.
Setting them transparently modifies Description. Note that the value of long_description is "unmangled", that is without leading spaces, and empty lines are empty. Description on the other hand is just as it looks in a regular debian/control file - the long part is indented with a single space and empty lines are replaced with dots.
Creates a new Debian::Control::Stanza::Binary object and optionally initializes it with the supplied data.
Debian::Control::Stanza::Source inherits most of its functionality from Debian::Control::Stanza
