Dpkg::Control::Info - parse files like debian/control
It provides a class to access data of files that follow the same syntax as debian/control.
Create a new Dpkg::Control::Info object. Loads the file from the filename option, if no option is specified filename defaults to debian/control. If a scalar is passed instead, it will be used as the filename. If filename is "-", it parses the standard input. If filename is undef no loading will be performed.

Parse a control file from the given filehandle. Exits in case of errors. $description is used to describe the filehandle, ideally it's a filename or a description of where the data comes from. It is used in error messages. The data in the object is reset before parsing new control files.
Load the content of $file. Exits in case of errors. If file is "-", it loads from the standard input.
