Debian::Control::Stanza::Binary - binary stanza of Debian source package control file SYNOPSIS
my $src = Debian::Control::Stanza::Binary->new(\%data); print $src; # auto-stringification print $src->Depends; # Debian::Dependencies object DESCRIPTION
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. FIELDS
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 http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ <http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/> Note that real control fields may contain dashes in their names. These are replaced with underscores. Package Architecture Section Priority Essential Depends Recommends Suggests Enhances Replaces Pre_Depends Conflicts Breaks Provides Description "Depends", "Conflicts" "Breaks", "Recommends", "Suggests", "Enhances", "Replaces", and "Pre_Depends" fields are converted to objects of Debian::Dependencies class upon construction. Two more accessor methods are provided for easier handling of package's short and long description. short_description 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. CONSTRUCTOR
new new( { field => value, ... } ) Creates a new Debian::Control::Stanza::Binary object and optionally initializes it with the supplied data. SEE ALSO

Debian::Control::FromCPAN(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Debian::Control::FromCPAN(3pm) NAME
Debian::Control::FromCPAN - fill debian/control from unpacked CPAN distribution SYNOPSIS
my $c = Debian::Control::FromCPAN->new(); $c->discover_dependencies( { ... } ); $c->prune_perl_deps; Debian::Control::FromCPAN inherits from L<Debian::Control>. METHODS
discover_dependencies( [ { options hash } ] ) Discovers module dependencies and fills the dependency fields in debian/control accordingly. Options: apt_contents An instance of Debian::AptContents to be used when locating to which package a required module belongs. dir The directory where the cpan distribution was unpacked. intrusive A flag indicating permission to use Module::Depends::Intrusive for discovering dependencies in case Module::Depends fails. Sinse this requires loading all Perl modules in the distribution (and running their BEGIN blocks (and the BEGIN blocks of their dependencies, recursively), it is recommended to use this only when dealing with trusted sources. require_deps If true, causes the method to die if some a package for some dependency cannot be found. Otherwise only a warning is issued. verbose wnpp_query An instance of Debian::WNPP::Query to be used when checking for WNPP bugs of depeended upon packages. Returns a list of module names for which no suitable Debian packages were found. find_debs_for_modules dep hash[, APT contents[, verbose ]] Scans the given hash of dependencies ( module => version ) and returns matching Debian package dependency specification (as an instance of Debian::Dependencies class) and a list of missing modules. Installed packages are searched first, then the APT contents, then the perl core. prune_simple_perl_dep Input: dependency object shall be a simple dependency (no alternatives) (optional) build dependency flag true value indicates the dependency is a build-time one The following checks are made dependencies on "perl-modules" These are replaced with "perl" as per Perl policy. dependencies on "perl-base" and build-dependencies on "perl" or "perl-base" These are removed, unless they specify a version greater than the one available in "oldstable" or the dependency relation is not ">=" or ">>". Return value: undef if the dependency is redundant. pruned dependency otherwise. "perl-modules" replaced with "perl". prune_perl_dep Similar to "prune_simple_perl_dep", but supports alternative dependencies. If any of the alternatives is redundant, the whole dependency is considered redundant. prune_perl_deps Remove redundant (build-)dependencies on perl, perl-modules and perl-base.
