NAME

Parse::Debian::Packages - parse the data from a debian Packages.gz

SYNOPSIS

  use YAML;
  use IO::File;
  use Parse::Debian::Packages;
  my $fh = IO::File->new("Packages");
 
  my $parser = Parse::Debian::Packages->new( $fh );
  while (my %package = $parser->next) {
      print Dump \%package;
  }

DESCRIPTION

This module parses the Packages files used by the debian package management tools.

It presents itself as an iterator. Each call of the ->next method will return the next package found in the file.

For laziness, we take a filehandle in to the constructor. Please open the file for us.
