NAME¶
Lintian::Collect::Group - Lintian interface to group data collection
SYNOPSIS¶
my $group = Lintian::ProcessableGroup->new ('lintian_2.5.0_i386.changes');
my $ginfo = Lintian::Collect::Group->new ($group);
foreach my $bin ($group->get_binary_processables) {
my $pkg_name = $bin->pkg_name;
foreach my $dirdep ($ginfo->direct_dependencies ($bin)) {
print "$pkg_name (pre-)depends on $dirdep (which is also in this group)\n";
}
}
DESCRIPTION¶
Lintian::Collect::Group is a "group" variant of the Lintian::Collect
modules. It attempts to expose a similar interface as these and provide useful
information about the processable group (or members of it).
CLASS METHODS¶
- Lintian::Collect::Group->new ($group)
- Creates a new object to provide information about $group.
- direct_dependencies (PROC)
- If PROC is a part of the underlying processable group, this method returns
a listref containing all the direct dependencies of PROC. If PROC is not a
part of the group, this returns undef.
Note: Only strong dependencies (Pre-Depends and Depends) are considered.
Note: Self-dependencies (if any) are not included in the result.
- $ginfo->type
- Return the type of this collect object (which is the string 'group').
- spelling_exceptions
- Returns a hashref of words, which the spell checker should ignore. These
words are generally based on the package names in the group to avoid
false-positive "spelling error" when packages have
"fun" names.
Example: Package alot-doc (#687464)
