NAME¶
Dpkg::Source::Package - manipulate Debian source packages
DESCRIPTION¶
This module provides an object that can manipulate Debian source packages. While
it supports both the extraction and the creation of source packages, the only
API that is officially supported is the one that supports the extraction of
the source package.
FUNCTIONS¶
- my $string = get_default_diff_ignore_regex()
- Returns the default diff ignore regex.
- set_default_diff_ignore_regex($string)
- Set a regex as the new default diff ignore regex.
- my @array = get_default_tar_ignore_pattern()
- Returns the default tar ignore pattern, as an array.
- $p = Dpkg::Source::Package->new(filename => $dscfile, options =>
{})
- Creates a new object corresponding to the source package described by the
file $dscfile.
The options hash supports the following options:
- skip_debianization
- If set to 1, do not apply Debian changes on the extracted source
package.
- skip_patches
- If set to 1, do not apply Debian-specific patches. This options is
specific for source packages using format "2.0" and "3.0
(quilt)".
- require_valid_signature
- If set to 1, the check_signature() method will be stricter and will
error out if the signature can't be verified.
- copy_orig_tarballs
- If set to 1, the extraction will copy the upstream tarballs next the
target directory. This is useful if you want to be able to rebuild the
source package after its extraction.
- $p->get_filename()
- Returns the filename of the DSC file.
- $p->get_files()
- Returns the list of files referenced by the source package. The filenames
usually do not have any path information.
- $p->check_checksums()
- Verify the checksums embedded in the DSC file. It requires the presence of
the other files constituting the source package. If any inconsistency is
discovered, it immediately errors out.
- $bool = $p->is_signed()
- Returns 1 if the DSC files contains an embedded OpenPGP signature.
Otherwise returns 0.
- $p->check_signature()
- Implement the same OpenPGP signature check that dpkg-source does. In case
of problems, it prints a warning or errors out.
If the object has been created with the "require_valid_signature"
option, then any problem will result in a fatal error.
- $p->extract($targetdir)
- Extracts the source package in the target directory $targetdir. Beware
that if $targetdir already exists, it will be erased.
