Module lossless 

Lossless parser for various Debian control files

This library provides a parser for various Debian control files, such as control, changes, and apt Release, Packages, and Sources files. The parser is lossless, meaning that it preserves all formatting as well as any possible errors in the files.

Example with positioned errors

use debian_control::lossless::{Control, PositionedParseError};

let input = "Invalid: field\nBroken field without colon";
let parsed = Control::parse(input);

// Access positioned errors for precise error reporting
for error in parsed.positioned_errors() {
    println!("Error at {:?}: {}", error.range, error.message);
    // Use error.range for IDE/language server integration
}
