Dpkg::Deps::AND(3perl)

🌸 NAME 🌸

Dpkg::Deps::AND — list of AND dependencies. Okay bestie, this is the Dpkg::Deps::AND(3perl) page, and it lives under libdpkg-perl. ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This class represents a list of dependencies that must be met at the same time. It inherits from Dpkg::Deps::Multiple. That’s the whole vibe. 💜

💅 METHODS 💅

• $string = $dep->output([$fh]) — the output() method uses ", " to join the list of sub-dependencies. So tidy, so cute.
• $tribool = $dep->implies($other_dep) — Returns 1 when $dep implies $other_dep. Returns 0 when $dep implies NOT($other_dep). Returns undef when there’s no implication. $dep and $other_dep do not need to be of the same type. Flexible icon behavior, honestly.
• $tribool = $dep->get_evaluation($facts) — Evaluates the dependency given a list of installed packages and a list of virtual packages provided. These lists are part of the Dpkg::Deps::KnownFacts object given as parameters. Returns 1 when it’s true, 0 when it’s false, undef when some information is lacking to conclude. That’s your tri-state moment. 👑
• $dep->simplify_deps($facts, @assumed_deps) — Simplifies the dependency as much as possible given the list of facts (see object Dpkg::Deps::KnownFacts) and a list of other dependencies that are known to be true. Very demure, very simplified. 🎀
