Detailed Description

template<typename Str, typename Itr>
struct pkgCache< Str, Itr >::Group

groups architecture depending packages together

On or more packages with the same name form a group, so we have a simple way to access a package built for different architectures Group exists in a singly linked list of group records starting at the hash index of the name in the pkgCache::Header::GrpHashTable

They also act as a representation of source packages, allowing you to iterate over all binaries produced by a source package.
