Lintian::Processable::IsNonFDebian Package CLintian::Processable::IsNonFree(3)
NAME
Lintian::Processable::IsNonFree - Lintian interface to source package
data collection
SYNOPSIS
my ($name, $type, $dir) = ('foobar', 'source', '/path/to/lab-entry');
my $collect = Lintian::Processable::IsNonFree->new($name);
if ($collect->native) {
print encode_utf8("Package is native\n");
}
DESCRIPTION
Lintian::Processable::IsNonFree provides an interface to package data
for source packages. It implements data collection methods specific to
source packages.
This module is in its infancy. Most of Lintian still reads all data
from files in the laboratory whenever that data is needed and generates
that data via collect scripts. The goal is to eventually access all
data about source packages via this module so that the module can cache
data where appropriate and possibly retire collect scripts in favor of
caching that data in memory.
INSTANCE METHODS
is_non_free
Returns a truth value if the package appears to be non-free (based
on the section field; "non-free/*" and "restricted/*")
