Lintian::Check(3)

🌸 NAME 🌸

Lintian::Check — bestie, this is your common facilities for Lintian checks ✨

Like, it's the Lintian::Check manual page (third section, we love a (3)), and it lives in the Debian Package Checker universe. It's giving "shared infrastructure so every check doesn't have to rebuild the same stuff from scratch." 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

okay so this is literally how you pull it into your own thing:

use Moo;
use namespace::clean;

with('Lintian::Check');

that's it. that's the whole vibe. no cap. 🦋

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

It's a class for operating Lintian checks. periodt.

Like — it's the class. You consume it with with('Lintian::Check') and suddenly your check has all the shared facilities it needs. no reinventing the wheel, no copy-pasting boilerplate, no chaos. just main character energy for your check class. 👑
