NAME

       DPKG::Parse::Packages - Parse the Packages file

SYNOPSIS

           use DPKG::Parse::Packages;

           my $packages = DPKG::Parse::Packages->new(
               'filename' => '/usr/src/packages/Packages',
           );
           while (my $entry = $packages->next_package) {
               print $entry->package . " " . $entry->version . "\n";
           }

           my $postfix = $packages->get_package('name' => 'postfix');

DESCRIPTION

       DPKG::Parse::Packages parses a dpkg/apt style Packages file and turns each entry into a
       DPKG::Parse::Entry object.

       See DPKG::Parse for more information on the get_package and next_package methods.

       See DPKG::Parse::Entry for more information on the entry objects.

METHODS

       new('filename' => '/usr/src/packages/Packages')
           Creates a new DPKG::Parse::Packages object.  By default, it tries to open
           /usr/src/packages/Packages.
