apt−sortpkgs − Utility to sort package index files
apt−sortpkgs [−hvs] [−o=config string] [−c=file] file... |
apt−sortpkgs will take an index file (Source index or Package index) and sort the records so that they are ordered by the package name. It will also sort the internal fields of each record according to the internal sorting rules.
All output is sent to stdout, the input must be a seekable file.
All command line options may be set using the configuration file, the descriptions indicate the configuration option to set. For boolean options you can override the config file by using something like −f−,−−no−f, −f=no or several other variations.
−s, −−source
Use Source index field ordering. Configuration Item: APT::SortPkgs::Source.
−h, −−help
Show a short usage summary.
−v, −−version
Show the program version.
−c, −−config−file
Configuration File; Specify a configuration file to use. The program will read the default configuration file and then this configuration file. See apt.conf(5) for syntax information.
−o, −−option
Set a Configuration Option; This will set an arbitary configuration option. The syntax is −o Foo::Bar=bar.
apt.conf(5)
