NAME

6       Dpkg::Changelog::Entry::Debian - represents a Debian changelog entry
7

DESCRIPTION

9       This class represents a Debian changelog entry.  It implements the
10       generic interface Dpkg::Changelog::Entry.  Only functions specific to
11       this implementation are described below, the rest are inherited.
12

METHODS

14       @items = $entry->get_change_items()
15           Return a list of change items. Each item contains at least one
16           line.  A change line starting with an asterisk denotes the start of
17           a new item.  Any change line like ""[ Raphaël Hertzog ]"" is
18           treated like an item of its own even if it starts a set of items
19           attributed to this person (the following line necessarily starts a
20           new item).
21
22       @errors = $entry->parse_header()
23       @errors = $entry->parse_trailer()
24           Return a list of errors. Each item in the list is an error message
25           describing the problem. If the empty list is returned, no errors
26           have been found.
27
28       $entry->normalize()
29           Normalize the content. Strip whitespaces at end of lines, use a
30           single empty line to separate each part.
31
32       $src = $entry->get_source()
33           Return the name of the source package associated to the changelog
34           entry.
35
36       $ver = $entry->get_version()
37           Return the version associated to the changelog entry.
38
39       @dists = $entry->get_distributions()
40           Return a list of target distributions for this version.
41
42       $fields = $entry->get_optional_fields()
43           Return a set of optional fields exposed by the changelog entry.  It
44           always returns a Dpkg::Control object (possibly empty though).
45
46       $urgency = $entry->get_urgency()
47           Return the urgency of the associated upload.
48
49       $maint = $entry->get_maintainer()
50           Return the string identifying the person who signed this changelog
51           entry.
52
53       $time = $entry->get_timestamp()
54           Return the timestamp of the changelog entry.
55
56       $time = $entry->get_timepiece()
57           Return the timestamp of the changelog entry as a Time::Piece
58           object.
59
60           This function might return undef if there was no timestamp.
61

UTILITY FUNCTIONS

63       $bool = match_header($line)
64           Checks if the line matches a valid changelog header line.
65
66       $bool = match_trailer($line)
67           Checks if the line matches a valid changelog trailing line.
68
69       @closed_bugs = find_closes($changes)
70           Takes one string as argument and finds "Closes: #123456, #654321"
71           statements as supported by the Debian Archive software in it.
72           Returns all closed bug numbers in an array.
