Dpkg::Conf - parse dpkg configuration files
The Dpkg::Conf object can be used to read options from a configuration file. It can export an array that can then be parsed exactly like @ARGV.
Create a new Dpkg::Conf object. Some options can be set through %opts: if allow_short evaluates to true (it defaults to false), then short options are allowed in the configuration file, they should be prepended with a single hyphen.
Returns the list of options that can be parsed like @ARGV.
Read options from a file. Return the number of options parsed.
