Description: Grep Debian package information
The grep-dctrl program can answer such questions as
"What is the Debian package foo?"
"Which version of the Debian package bar is
now current?"
"Which Debian packages does John Doe maintain?"
"Which Debian packages are somehow related to
the Scheme programming language?"
and with some help
"Who maintain the essential packages of a
Debian system?"
given a useful input file.
.
It is a specialised grep program that
is meant for processing any file which has the
general format of a Debian package control file.
These include the dpkg available file, the dpkg
status file, and the Packages files on a distribution
medium (such as a Debian CD-ROM or an FTP site
carrying Debian).
