sort_lines(UNSORTED, SORTED): Sorts the file UNSORTED line by line and places the result into the file SORTED.
calibrate(SCRIPT, ACTUAL, EXPECTED, CALIBRATED): Executes calibration script SCRIPT with the three arguments EXPECTED, ACTUAL and CALIBRATED, all of which are file paths. Please note that the order of arguments in this function corresponds to the bookkeeping logic of ACTUAL vs EXPECTED. The order for the script is different.

run_lintian(DESC, INPUT, INCLUDES, OUTPUT, DIR): Runs Lintian in directory DIR on the input file INPUT and a collects the output in file OUTPUT. Any include directories in INCLUDES, if present, are passed on.
