Bug#788936: RFP: libfile-spec-perl - portably perform operations on file names

[Svetlana A. Tkachenko]

Package: libfile-spec-perl
Severity: wishlist

This module is designed to support operations commonly performed on file specifications (usually called "file names", but not to be confused with the contents of a file, or Perl's file handles), such as concatenating several directory and file names into a single path, or determining whether a path is rooted. It is based on code directly taken from MakeMaker 5.17, code written by Andreas König, Andy Dougherty, Charles Bailey, Ilya Zakharevich, Paul Schinder, and others.
