line. Blank lines can be between those kind of lines.
FUNCTIONS
my $entry = Dpkg::Changelog::Entry->new()

"header, "changes", "trailer", "blank_after_header", "blank_after_changes", "blank_after_trailer".
$entry->set_part($part, $value)
Set the value of the corresponding part. $value can be a string or an array ref.
$entry->extend_part($part, $value)
