💖 Lintian::Data::Authority::PythonPolicy — a whole manual page, but make it slay 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to section 3 of the Lintian manual — Debian Package Checker, no big deal, just the vibe. This one's all about Lintian::Data::Authority::PythonPolicy, and it is literally the Lintian interface for manual references. 🐍✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

Lintian::Data::Authority::PythonPolicy — the Lintian interface for manual references. that's the whole name. iconic. periodt. 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

so the whole flex is just... this:

use Lintian::Data::Authority::PythonPolicy;

like, that's it. one line. ate and left no crumbs. 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so here's the tea, bestie: Lintian::Data::Authority::PythonPolicy gives you a way to load data files for manual references. that's the entire job description. it's a loader. it loads. no cap. 💖

think of it as the little data-delivery bestie for Lintian's manual-reference needs. it's giving infrastructure. it's giving underappreciated but essential. we stan. 👑

✨ CLASS METHODS ✨

now here's where the manpage just... hands you a list and dips. no explanations, no one-liners, just vibes. so I'm giving them to you exactly as they appear, because the one rule that matters most is: keep every detail, don't invent. 🔥

The class methods are:

  • title
  • shorthand
  • location
  • separator
  • consumer
  • markdown_citation
  • write_line
  • write_data_file
  • extract_sections_from_links
  • refresh
bestie I need you to know I am not gonna sit here and guess what these do. the original page does not say, and I do not make up technical facts. The refresh one is lowkey calling my name though. 😭 anyway — there they are. all ten. counted them for you. no method left behind. 🎀
