Bug#593525: python-debian: Please add a Control object

[Benjamin Drung]

Package: python-debian
Version: 0.1.16
Severity: wishlist

I want to parse a debian/control file and found no 'Control' object that
represents a debian/control file. I had to create my own Crontol object that
contains a list of Deb822 objects:

def get_blocks(blocks, line):
	if line.strip() == "":
		blocks.append(list())
	else:
		blocks[-1].append(line)
	return blocks

lines = open("debian/control").readlines()
blocks = reduce(get_blocks, lines, [[]])
self.blocks = map(debian.deb822.Deb822, blocks)

Please add a Control object.
