NAME

       update-perl-sax-parsers - (de)register Perl SAX parser modules

SYNOPSIS

       update-perl-sax-parsers [options] --add parser_module

       update-perl-sax-parsers [options] --remove parser_module

       update-perl-sax-parsers [options] --update

DESCRIPTION

       update-perl-sax-parsers  inserts, updates and removes individual Perl SAX parser module info files in the
       directory /var/lib/libxml-sax-perl/ParserDetails.d and the overall Perl  SAX  parser  modules  info  file
       /etc/perl/XML/SAX/ParserDetails.ini.

OPTIONS

       --add  Adds  the  per-module  info  file  for  the  indicated  Perl  SAX  parser  module to the directory
              /var/lib/libxml-sax-perl/ParserDetails.d.

       --remove
              Removes the per-module info file for Perl SAX parser module from  the  directory  /var/lib/libxml-
              sax-perl/ParserDetails.d.

       --update
              updates  the  overall  Perl SAX parser modules info file /etc/perl/XML/SAX/ParserDetails.ini.  The
              modules will be listed in an order of ascending priority. See the PARSER PRIORITIES section below.

              The file will be managed with ucf(1) , unless the --file option is used. See also the --ucf option
              below.

       --directory
              When  used  with --add or with --remove indicates the ParserDetails.d directory to use for storing
              the per-module Perl SAX parser module info file.  When  used  one  or  more  times  with  --update
              indicates   the   ParserDetails.d   directories   to   be   used  as  source  for  generating  the
              ParserDetails.ini file.  Default is /var/lib/libxml-sax-perl/ParserDetails.d.

       --file Indicates     the     ParserDetails.ini     file     up     be      updated.       Default      is
              /etc/perl/XML/SAX/ParserDetails.ini.

       --priority XX
              Specifies the priority of the SAX parser module to be added removed.  The priority will be encoded
              to the filename of the ParserDetails.d entry. See the PARSER PRIORITIES section below.

              This option was added in version 0.3 of update-perl-sax-parsers .  Use the value  "0"  to  disable
              the encoding and match the behaviour of earlier versions of the script.

              The default priority value is 50, unless --directory was specified, in which case the default is 0
              (disabled.)

       --ucf X
              Forcibly enable (X != 0) or disable (X = 0) of ucf(1) .  By default, ucf(1) will be used to manage
              the ParserDetails.ini file when --file is not specified.

       --quiet
              Prevents any diagnostic output.

       --test Prevents the modification of any files and enables debugging mode.

       --version
              Displays the version information and exits.

       --help Display the usage information and exits.

PARSER PRIORITIES

       Starting  with version 0.3 of update-perl-sax-parsers , the parsers are assigned a priority value that is
       encoded into the names of the files in the ParserDetails.d directory. Specifically, the file name will be
       "XX-Some::Module", where XX denotes the priority and Some::Module is the name of the parser module.

       When  --update  is  called,  the  parsers  are  listed  in  an  order  of  ascending  priority  into  the
       ParserDetails.ini file. The last parser in the file, ie. the  one  with  the  highest  priority,  is  the
       default XML::SAX parser.

       Parsers  with  the  same  priority  are  sorted  alphabetically  by  their name.  This is contrary to the
       behaviour of earlier versions, where the sort order was undefined and depended  on  the  underlying  file
       system.

NOTE

       Installing  the original package from CPAN into /usr/local breaks the Debian package, since the former is
       in Perl's @INC before the latter.  So, please don't do this.

       If there's a new version of XML::SAX simply file a wishlist against the Debian package and wait  for  the
       update.
