NAME
       Dpkg::Path - some common path handling functions

DESCRIPTION
       It provides some functions to handle various path.

FUNCTIONS
       get_pkg_root_dir($file)
               This function will scan upwards the hierarchy of directory to find out the
               directory which contains the "DEBIAN" sub-directory and it will return its path.
               This directory is the root directory of a package being built.

               If no DEBIAN subdirectory is found, it will return undef.

       relative_to_pkg_root($file)
               Returns the filename relative to get_pkg_root_dir($file).

       guess_pkg_root_dir($file)
               This function tries to guess the root directory of the package build tree.  It
               will first use get_pkg_root_dir(), but it will fallback to a more imprecise check:
               namely it will use the parent directory that is a sub-directory of the debian
               directory.

               It can still return undef if a file outside of the debian sub-directory is
               provided.

       check_files_are_the_same($file1, $file2, $resolve_symlink)
               This function verifies that both files are the same by checking that the device
               numbers and the inode numbers returned by stat()/lstat() are the same. If
               $resolve_symlink is true then stat() is used, otherwise lstat() is used.

       canonpath($file)
               This function returns a cleaned path. It simplifies double //, and remove /./ and
               /../ intelligently. For /../ it simplifies the path only if the previous element
               is not a symlink. Thus it should only be used on real filenames.

       $newpath = resolve_symlink($symlink)
               Return the filename of the file pointed by the symlink. The new name is
               canonicalized by canonpath().

       check_directory_traversal($basedir, $dir)
               This function verifies that the directory $dir does not contain any symlink that
               goes beyond $basedir (which should be either equal or a parent of $dir).

       $cmdpath = find_command($command)
               Return the path of the command if defined and available on an absolute or relative
               path or on the $PATH, undef otherwise.

       $control_file = get_control_path($pkg, $filetype)
               Return the path of the control file of type $filetype for the given package.

       @control_files = get_control_path($pkg)
               Return the path of all available control files for the given package.

       $file = find_build_file($basename)
               Selects the right variant of the given file: the arch-specific variant
               ("$basename.$arch") has priority over the OS-specific variant ("$basename.$os")
               which has priority over the default variant ("$basename"). If none of the files
               exists, then it returns undef.

       @files = find_build_file($basename)
               Return the available variants of the given file. Returns an empty list if none of
               the files exists.
