Description:
Small toolbox-style utilities for Debian systems
These programs are designed to integrate with standard shell tools, extending them to operate on the Debian packaging system. . dglob - Generate a list of package names which match a pattern [dctrl-tools, apt*, apt-file*, perl*] dgrep - Search all files in specified packages for a regex [dctrl-tools, apt-file (both via dglob)] . These are also included, because they are useful and don't justify their own packages: . check-enhancements - find packages which enhance installed packages [apt, dctrl-tools] checkrestart - Help to find and restart processes which are using old versions of upgraded files (such as libraries) [python3, procps, lsof*] debget - Fetch a .deb for a package in APT's database [apt] debman - Easily view man pages from a binary .deb without extracting [man, apt* (via debget)] debmany - Select manpages of installed or uninstalled packages [man | sensible-utils, whiptail | dialog | zenity, apt*, konqueror*, libgnome2-bin*, xdg-utils*] dhomepage - Open homepage of a package in a web browser [dctrl-tools, sensible-utils*, www-browser* | x-www-browser*] dman - Fetch manpages from online manpages.debian.org service [curl, man, lsb-release*] dpigs - Show which installed packages occupy the most space [dctrl-tools] find-dbgsym-packages - Get list of dbgsym packages from core dump or PID [dctrl-tools, elfutils, libipc-system-simple-perl] popbugs - Display a customized release-critical bug list based on packages you use (using popularity-contest data) [python3, popularity-contest] which-pkg-broke - find which package might have broken another [python3, apt] which-pkg-broke-build - find which package might have broken the build of another [python3 (via which-pkg-broke), apt] .
