dd−list − nicely list .deb packages and their maintainers
dd−list [−hiuV] [−−help] [−−stdin] [−−dctrl] [−−version] [−−uploaders] [package...]
dd−list produces nicely formatted lists of Debian (.deb) packages and their maintainers.
Input is a list of source or binary package names on the command line (or the standard input if --stdin is given). Output is a list of the following format, where package names are source packages by default:
J. Random Developer <jrandom@debian.org>
j-random-package
j-random-other
Diana Hacker <diana@example.org>
fun-package
more-fun-package
This is useful when you want, for example, to produce a list of packages that need to attention from their maintainers, e.g., to be rebuilt when a library version transition happens.
−h,−−help
Print brief help message.
−i,−−stdin
Read package names from the standard input, instead of taking them from the command line. Package names are whitespace delimited.
−d,−−dctrl
Read package list from standard input in the format of a Debian package control file. This includes the status file, or output of apt-cache. This is the fastest way to use dd-list, as it uses the maintainer information from the input instead of looking up the maintainer of each listed package.
If no Source: line is given, the Package: name is used for output, which might be a binary package name.
−u,−−uploaders
Also list developers who are named as uploaders of packages, not only the maintainers; this is the default behaviour, use −−nouploaders to prevent it. Uploaders are indicated with "(U)" appended to the package name.
−nou,−−nouploaders
Only list package Maintainers, do not list Uploaders.
−b,−−print−binary
Use binary package names in the output instead of source package names (has no effect with --dctrl if the Package: line contains source package names).
−V,−−version
Print the version.
