Package: damngpl Status: install ok unpacked Priority: optional Section: misc Installed-Size: 32 Maintainer: Patrick Schleizer Architecture: all Version: 3:4.6-1 Depends: perl Description: Extract source package info from Debian status files damngpl will parse a Debian-style /var/lib/dpkg/status file and extract source package information about installed packages. This information can be used in several ways, usually to download source packages. . Multiple input files can be specified on the command line, or piped into standard input if no files are specified. Results are returned to standard output. . The name damngpl was chosen as a tongue-in-cheek description of its purpose (downloading Debian sources for the Finnix project to remain GPL compliant). Please do not send hate mail to the author, thinking he is anti-GPL. He's not. .
