=head1 NAME

Dpkg::Conf - parse dpkg configuration files

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The Dpkg::Conf object can be used to read options from a configuration
file. It can exports an array that can then be parsed exactly like @ARGV.

=head1 FUNCTIONS

=over 4

=item my $conf = Dpkg::Conf->new(%opts)

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 dash.

=item $conf->load($file)

Read options from a file. Return the number of options parsed.

=item $conf->parse($fh)

Parse options from a file handle. Return the number of options parsed.
