NAME
Dpkg::Changelog::Debian - parse Debian changelogs
DESCRIPTION
Dpkg::Changelog::Debian parses Debian changelogs as described in
deb-changelog(5).
The parser tries to ignore most cruft like # or /* */ style comments,
RCS keywords, Vim modelines, Emacs local variables and stuff from
older changelogs with other formats at the end of the file.
NOTE: most of these are ignored silently currently, there is no
parser error issued for them. This should become configurable in the
future.
METHODS
- $c->parse($fh, $description)
-
Read the filehandle and parse a Debian changelog in it. The data in the
