Dpkg::Deps::OR(3perl)            libdpkg-perl            Dpkg::Deps::OR(3perl)

NAME
       Dpkg::Deps::OR - list of OR dependencies

DESCRIPTION
       This class represents a list of dependencies of which only one must be
       met for the dependency to be true. It inherits from
       Dpkg::Deps::Multiple.

METHODS
       $dep->output([$fh])
           The  output()  method  uses  "  |  "  to  join  the  list  of  sub-
           dependencies.

       $dep->implies($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.

       $dep->get_evaluation($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.

       $dep->simplify_deps($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.
