# Lintian::Processable::Control::Conffiles(3)

access to collected control data for conffiles

## NAME

Lintian::Processable::Control::Conffiles - access to collected control data for conffiles

## SYNOPSIS

```
    use Lintian::Processable;
```

## DESCRIPTION

Lintian::Processable::Control::Conffiles provides an interface to control data for conffiles.

## INSTANCE METHODS

- conffiles

  Returns a list of absolute filenames found for conffiles.

- is\_conffile (FILE)

  Returns a truth value if FILE is listed in the conffiles control file. If the control file is not present or FILE is not listed in it, it returns `"undef"`.

  Note that FILE should be the filename relative to the package root (even though the control file uses absolute paths).  If the control file does relative paths, they are assumed to be relative to the package root as well (and used without warning).
