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).
