-.TH apt-get 8 "16 June 1998" "Debian GNU/Linux"
-.SH NAME
-apt-get \- APT package handling utility \(em command-line interface
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B apt-get
-.RI [ options ]
-.RI [ command ]
-.RI [ package
-.IR ... ]
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.B apt-get
-is the command-line tool for handling packages, and may be considered the
-user's "back-end" to
-.BR apt (8).
-Use
-.BR apt (8)
-if the usage of apt-get does not seem intuitive.
-.PP
-.I command
-is one of
-.RS
-.PD 0
-.B update
-.PP
-.B upgrade
-.PP
-.B dselect-upgrade
-.PP
-.B dist-upgrade
-.PP
-.B install
-.PP
-.B check
-.PP
-.B clean
-.RE
-.PD 1
-.PP
-Unless one of the
-.IR -h ,
-.IR --help ,
-.IR -f ,
-or
-.I --fix-broken
-options is given, one of the above commands must be present. Only the
-.B install
-command requires any further arguments.
-.SS update
-.B update
-is used to resynchronize the package overview files from their
-sources. The overviews of available packages are fetched from the
-location(s) specified in
-.IR /etc/apt/sources.list .
-For example, when using a Debian archive, this command retrieves and
-scans the
-.I Packages.gz
-files, so that information about new and updated packages is available. An
-.B update
-should always be performed before an
-.B upgrade
-or
-.BR dist-upgrade .
-.SS upgrade
-.B upgrade
-is used to install the newest versions of all packages currently installed
-on the system from the sources enumerated in
-.IR /etc/apt/sources.list .
-Packages currently installed with new versions available are retrieved
-and upgraded; under no circumstances are currently installed packages
-removed, or packages not already installed retrieved and installed. New
-versions of currently installed packages that cannot be upgraded without
-changing the install status of another package will be left at their
-current version. An
-.B update
-must be performed first so that
-.B apt-get
-knows that new versions of packages are available.
-.SS dselect-upgrade
-.B dselect-upgrade
-is used in conjunction with the traditional Debian GNU/Linux packaging
-front-end,
-.BR dselect (8). " dselect-upgrade"
-follows the changes made by
-.B dselect
-to the
-.I Status
-field of available packages, and performs the actions necessary to realize
-that state (for instance, the removal of old and the installation of new
-packages).
-.B dselect-upgrade
-does not attempt to intelligently address dependency issues as
-.B dist-upgrade
-or
-.B install
-do. If any dependency problems arise,
-.B apt-get
-aborts without performing any of the actions requested, even those
-without problems.
-.B dselect-upgrade
-is only useful to users of
-.B dselect
-and the
-.I .deb
-package file format. The
-.I /etc/apt/sources.list
-file contains a list of locations from which to retrieve desired package
-files.
-.SS dist-upgrade
-.BR dist-upgrade ,
-in addition to performing the function of
-.BR upgrade ,
-also intelligently handles changing dependencies with new versions of
-packages;
-.B apt-get
-has a "smart" conflict resolution system, and it will attempt to upgrade
-the most important packages at the expense of less important ones if
-necessary. The
-.I /etc/apt/sources.list
-file contains a list of locations from which to retrieve desired package
-files.
-.SS install
-.B install
-is followed by one or more
-.I packages
-desired for installation. Each
-.I package
-is a package name, not a fully qualified filename (for instance, in a
-Debian GNU/Linux system,
-.I lsdo
-would be the argument provided, not
-.IR ldso_1.9.6-2.deb ).
-All packages required by the package(s) specified for installation will
-also be retrieved and installed. The
-.I /etc/apt/sources.list
-file is used to locate the desired packages. If a hyphen is appended to
-the package name (with no intervening space), the identified package will
-be removed if it is installed. This latter feature may be used to override
-decisions made by apt-get's conflict resolution system.
-.SS check
-.B check
-is a diagnostic tool; it updates the package cache and checks for broken
-packages.
-.SS clean
-.B clean
-clears out the local repository of retrieved package files. It removes
-everything but the lock file from
-.I /var/cache/apt/archives/
-and
-.IR /var/cache/apt/archives/partial/ .
-When APT is used as a
-.BR dselect (8)
-method,
-.B
-clean
-is run automatically.  Those who do not use dselect will likely want to
-run
-.B
-apt-get clean
-from time to time to free up disk space.
-.SH OPTIONS
-.TP
-.IR \-d , " --download-only"
-Download only; package files are only retrieved, not unpacked or installed.
-.TP
-.IR \-f , " --fix-broken"
-Fix; attempt to correct a system with broken dependencies in            
-place. This option may be used alone or in conjunction with any of the  
-command actions, and is sometimes necessary when running APT for the    
-first time; APT itself does not allow broken package dependencies to    
-exist on a system. It is possible that a system's dependency structure  
-can be so corrupt as to require manual intervention (which usually      
-means using dselect or dpkg --remove to eliminate some of the offending 
-packages). Use of this option together with -m is discouraged.          
-.TP
-.IR \-h , " --help"
-Help; display a helpful usage message and exit.
-.TP
-.IR \-m , " --ignore-missing"
-Ignore missing packages; If packages cannot be retrieved or fail the    
-integrity check after retrieval (corrupted package files), hold back    
-those packages and handle the result. Use of this option together with  
--f is discouraged.                                                      
-.TP
-.IR \-q , " --silent"
-Quiet; produces output suitable for logging, omitting progress indicators.
-.TP
-.I \-qq
-Very quiet; no output except for errors.
-.TP
-.IR \-s , " --simulate" , " --just-print" , " --dry-run" , " --recon " , " --no-act"
-No action; perform a simulation of events that would occur but do not
-actually change the system.
-.TP
-.IR \-y , " --yes" , " --assume-yes"
-Automatic yes to prompts; assume "yes" as answer to all prompts and run
-non-interactively.
