aptitude help
aptitude ist eine textbasierte Benutzerschnittstelle für das Paketsystem von DebianGNU/Linux.
It allows the user to view the list of packages and to perform package management tasks such as installing, upgrading, and removing packages. Actions may be performed from a visual interface or from the command-line.
Das erste Argument, das nicht mit einem Minus („-“) beginnt, wird als Befehl an das Programm angesehen. Wenn kein Befehl übergeben wird, startet aptitude im visuellen Modus.
Die folgenden Aktionen sind verfügbar:
install
To select a particular version of the package, append „=<version>“ to the package name: for instance, „aptitude install apt=0.3.1“. Similarly, to select a package from a particular archive, append „/<archive>“ to the package name: for instance, „aptitude install apt/experimental“. You cannot specify both an archive and a version for a package.
Not every package listed on the command line has to be installed; you can tell aptitude to do something different with a package by appending an „override specifier“ to the name of the package. For example, aptitude remove wesnoth+ will install wesnoth, not remove it. The following override specifiers are available:
<package>+
If the package was not installed, it is marked as manually installed, and the dependencies newly installed are marked with the automatic flag. If the package or the dependencies were already installed, the automatic flag is preserved. See the section about automatic installations in the documentation for more information.
<package>+M
<package>-
<package>_
<package>=
<package>:
<package>&M
<package>&m
<package>&BD
As a special case, „install“ with no arguments will act on any stored/pending actions.
remove, purge, reinstall
For instance, „aptitude remove '~ndeity'“ will remove all packages whose name contains „deity“.
build-depends, build-dep
If the command-line parameter --arch-only is present, only architecture-dependent build dependencies (i.e., not Build-Depends-Indep or Build-Conflicts-Indep) will be obeyed.
markauto, unmarkauto
For more information on automatically installed packages, see the section „Managing Automatically Installed Packages“ in the aptitude reference manual.
hold, unhold, keep
The difference between hold and keep is that hold will cause a package to be ignored by future safe-upgrade or full-upgrade commands, while keep merely cancels any scheduled actions on the package. unhold will allow a package to be upgraded by future safe-upgrade or full-upgrade commands, without otherwise altering its state.
keep-all
forget-new
This command accepts package names or patterns as arguments. If the string contains a tilde character („~“) or a question mark („?“), it will be treated as a search pattern and every package matching the pattern will be considered (see the section „Search Patterns“ in the aptitude reference manual).
forbid-version
By default, aptitude will select the forbidden version to be the one which the package would normally be upgraded (the candidate version). This may be overridden by appending „=<version>“ to the package name: for instance, „aptitude forbid-version vim=1.2.3.broken-4“.
To revert the action, „aptitude install <package>“ will remove the ban. To remove the forbidden version without installing the candidate version, the current version should be appended: „install <package>=<version>“.
update
safe-upgrade
If no <package>s are listed on the command line, aptitude will attempt to upgrade every package that can be upgraded. Otherwise, aptitude will attempt to upgrade only the packages which it is instructed to upgrade. The <package>s can be extended with suffixes in the same manner as arguments to aptitude install, so you can also give additional instructions to aptitude here; for instance, aptitude safe-upgrade bash dash- will attempt to upgrade the bash package and remove the dash package.
It is sometimes necessary to remove one package in order to upgrade another; this command is not able to upgrade packages in such situations. Use the full-upgrade command to upgrade as many packages as possible.
full-upgrade
If no <package>s are listed on the command line, aptitude will attempt to upgrade every package that can be upgraded. Otherwise, aptitude will attempt to upgrade only the packages which it is instructed to upgrade. The <package>s can be extended with suffixes in the same manner as arguments to aptitude install, so you can also give additional instructions to aptitude here; for instance, aptitude full-upgrade bash dash- will attempt to upgrade the bash package and remove the dash package.
search
i apt - Advanced front-end for dpkg pi apt-build - frontend to apt to build, optimize and in cp apt-file - APT package searching utility -- command- ihA raptor-utils - Raptor RDF Parser utilities
Each search result is listed on a separate line. The first character of each line indicates the current state of the package: the most common states are p, meaning that no trace of the package exists on the system, c, meaning that the package was deleted but its configuration files remain on the system, i, meaning that the package is installed, and v, meaning that the package is virtual. The second character indicates the stored action (if any; otherwise a blank space is displayed) to be performed on the package, with the most common actions being i, meaning that the package will be installed, d, meaning that the package will be deleted, and p, meaning that the package and its configuration files will be removed. If the third character is A, the package was automatically installed.
For a complete list of the possible state and action flags, see the section „Accessing Package Information“ in the aptitude reference guide. To customize the output of search, see the command-line options -F and --sort.
show
If the verbosity level is 1 or greater (i.e., at least one -v is present on the command-line), information about all versions of the package is displayed. Otherwise, information about the „candidate version“ (the version that „aptitude install“ would download) is displayed.
You can display information about a different version of the package by appending =<version> to the package name; you can display the version from a particular archive or release by appending /<archive> or /<release> to the package name: for instance, /unstable or /sid. If either of these is present, then only the version you request will be displayed, regardless of the verbosity level.
If the verbosity level is 1 or greater, the package's architecture, compressed size, filename, and md5sum fields will be displayed. If the verbosity level is 2 or greater, the select version or versions will be displayed once for each archive in which they are found.
showsrc
This is a thin wrapper over apt(8).
source
This is a thin wrapper over apt(8).
versions
$ aptitude versions wesnoth p 1:1.4.5-1 100 p 1:1.6.5-1 unstable 500 p 1:1.7.14-1 experimental 1
Each version is listed on a separate line. The leftmost three characters indicate the current state, planned state (if any), and whether the package was automatically installed; for more information on their meanings, see the documentation of aptitude search. To the right of the version number you can find the releases from which the version is available, and the pin priority of the version.
If a package name contains a tilde character („~“) or a question mark („?“), it will be treated as a search pattern and all matching versions will be displayed (see the section „Search Patterns“ in the aptitude reference manual). This means that, for instance, aptitude versions '~i' will display all the versions that are currently installed on the system and nothing else, not even other versions of the same packages.
$ aptitude versions '~nexim4-daemon-light' Package exim4-daemon-light: i 4.71-3 100 p 4.71-4 unstable 500 Package exim4-daemon-light-dbg: p 4.71-4 unstable 500
If the input is a search pattern, or if more than one package's versions are to be displayed, aptitude will automatically group the output by package, as shown above. You can disable this via --group-by=none, in which case aptitude will display a single list of all the versions that were found and automatically include the package name in each output line:
$ aptitude versions --group-by=none '~nexim4-daemon-light' i exim4-daemon-light 4.71-3 100 p exim4-daemon-light 4.71-4 unstable 500 p exim4-daemon-light-dbg 4.71-4 unstable 500
To disable the package name, pass --show-package-names=never:
$ aptitude versions --show-package-names=never --group-by=none '~nexim4-daemon-light' i 4.71-3 100 p 4.71-4 unstable 500 p 4.71-4 unstable 500
In addition to the above options, the information printed for each version can be controlled by the command-line option -F. The order in which versions are displayed can be controlled by the command-line option --sort. To prevent aptitude from formatting the output into columns, use --disable-columns.
add-user-tag, remove-user-tag
User tags are arbitrary strings associated with a package. They can be used with the ?user-tag(<tag>) search term, which will select all the packages that have a user tag matching <tag>.
why, why-not
This command searches for packages that require or conflict with the given package. It displays a sequence of dependencies leading to the target package, along with a note indicating the installed state of each package in the dependency chain:
$ aptitude why kdepim i nautilus-data Recommends nautilus i A nautilus Recommends desktop-base (>= 0.2) i A desktop-base Suggests gnome | kde | xfce4 | wmaker p kde Depends kdepim (>= 4:3.4.3)
The command why finds a dependency chain that installs the package named on the command line, as above. Note that the dependency that aptitude produced in this case is only a suggestion. This is because no package currently installed on this computer depends on or recommends the kdepim package; if a stronger dependency were available, aptitude would have displayed it.
In contrast, why-not finds a dependency chain leading to a conflict with the target package:
$ aptitude why-not textopo i ocaml-core Depends ocamlweb i A ocamlweb Depends tetex-extra | texlive-latex-extra i A texlive-latex-extra Conflicts textopo
If one or more <pattern>s are present (in addition to the mandatory last argument, which should be a valid <package> name), then aptitude will begin its search at these patterns. That is, the first package in the chain it prints to explain why <package> is or is not installed, will be a package matching the pattern in question. The patterns are considered to be package names unless they contain a tilde character („~“) or a question mark („?“), in which case they are treated as search patterns (see the section „Search Patterns“ in the aptitude reference manual).
If no patterns are present, then aptitude will search for dependency chains beginning at manually installed packages. This effectively shows the packages that have caused or would cause a given package to be installed.
If the verbosity level is 1 or more, then all the explanations aptitude can find will be displayed, in inverse order of relevance. If the verbosity level is 2 or more, a truly excessive amount of debugging information will be printed to standard output.
This command returns 0 if successful, 1 if no explanation could be constructed, and -1 if an error occurred.
clean
autoclean
changelog
By default, the changelog for the version which would be installed with „aptitude install“ is downloaded. You can select a particular version of a package by appending =<version> to the package name; you can select the version from a particular archive or release by appending /<archive> or /<release> to the package name (for instance, /unstable or /sid).
download
This is a thin wrapper over apt(8).
extract-cache-subset
Dependencies in binary package stanzas will be rewritten to remove references to packages not in the selected set.
help
Die folgenden Optionen können angegeben werden, um das Verhalten der obigen Befehle zu verändern. Obwohl die Optionen von allen Befehlen akzeptiert werden, sind sie nicht immer für eine bestimmten Befehl anwendbar und werden in solchen Fällen ignoriert.
--add-user-tag <tag>
--add-user-tag-to <tag>,<pattern>
For instance, aptitude safe-upgrade --add-user-tag-to "new-installs,?action(install)" will add the tag new-installs to all the packages installed by the safe-upgrade command.
--allow-new-upgrades
--allow-new-installs
--allow-untrusted
--disable-columns
For instance, the first few lines of output from „aptitude search -F '%p %V' --disable-columns libedataserver“ might be:
disksearch 1.2.1-3 hp-search-mac 0.1.3 libbsearch-ruby 1.5-5 libbsearch-ruby1.8 1.5-5 libclass-dbi-abstractsearch-perl 0.07-2 libdbix-fulltextsearch-perl 0.73-10
As in the above example, --disable-columns is often useful in combination with a custom display format set using the command-line option -F.
This corresponds to the configuration option Aptitude::CmdLine::Disable-Columns.
-D, --show-deps
This corresponds to the configuration option Aptitude::CmdLine::Show-Deps.
-d, --download-only
This corresponds to the configuration option Aptitude::CmdLine::Download-Only.
-F <Format>, --display-format <Format>
Die Befehlszeilenoption --disable-columns is oft in Kombination mit -F sinnvoll.
For search, this corresponds to the configuration option Aptitude::CmdLine::Package-Display-Format; for versions, this corresponds to the configuration option Aptitude::CmdLine::Version-Display-Format.
-f
This corresponds to the configuration item Aptitude::CmdLine::Fix-Broken.
--full-resolver
This option can be used to force the use of the full resolver even when Aptitude::Always-Use-Safe-Resolver is true.
--group-by <Gruppierungsmodus>
Dies entspricht der Konfigurationsoption Aptitude::CmdLine::Versions-Group-By.
-h, --help
--log-file=<file>
This does not affect the log of installations that aptitude has performed (/var/log/aptitude); the log messages written using this configuration include internal program events, errors, and debugging messages. See the command-line option --log-level to get more control over what gets logged.
Dies entspricht der Konfigurationsoption Aptitude::Logging::File.
--log-level=<level>, --log-level=<category>:<level>
--log-level=<category>:<level> causes messages in <category> to only be logged if their level is <level> or higher.
--log-level may appear multiple times on the command line; the most specific setting is the one that takes effect, so if you pass --log-level=aptitude.resolver:fatal and --log-level=aptitude.resolver.hints.match:trace, then messages in aptitude.resolver.hints.parse will only be printed if their level is fatal, but all messages in aptitude.resolver.hints.match will be printed. If you set the level of the same category two or more times, the last setting is the one that will take effect.
This does not affect the log of installations that aptitude has performed (/var/log/aptitude); the log messages written using this configuration include internal program events, errors, and debugging messages. See the command-line option --log-file to change where log messages go.
Dies entspricht der Konfigurationsgruppe Aptitude::Logging::Levels.
--log-resolver
--no-new-installs
This mimics the historical behavior of apt-get upgrade.
--no-new-upgrades
--no-show-resolver-actions
-O <Reihenfolge>, --sort <Reihenfolge>
Prepending the order keyword with a tilde character (~) reverses the order from ascending to descending.
Die voreingestellte Sortierreihenfolge ist Name,Version.
-o <Schlüssel>=<Wert>
-P, --prompt
Dies entspricht der Konfigurationsoption Aptitude::CmdLine::Always-Prompt.
--purge-unused
Dies entspricht der Konfigurationsoption Aptitude::Purge-Unused.
-q[=<n>], --quiet[=<n>]
The optional =<n> may be used to directly set the amount of quietness (for instance, to override a setting in /etc/apt/apt.conf); it causes the program to behave as if -q had been passed exactly <n> times.
-R, --without-recommends
This corresponds to the pair of configuration options APT::Install-Recommends and APT::AutoRemove::RecommendsImportant.
-r, --with-recommends
Dies entspricht der Konfigurationsoption APT::Install-Recommends
--remove-user-tag <tag>
--remove-user-tag-from <tag>,<pattern>
For instance, aptitude safe-upgrade --remove-user-tag-from "not-upgraded,?action(upgrade)" will remove the not-upgraded tag from all packages that the safe-upgrade command is able to upgrade.
-s, --simulate
This corresponds to the configuration option Aptitude::Simulate.
--safe-resolver
This option is equivalent to setting the configuration variable Aptitude::Always-Use-Safe-Resolver to true.
--schedule-only
For instance, aptitude --schedule-only install evolution will schedule the evolution package for later installation.
--show-package-names <when>
This option corresponds to the configuration item Aptitude::CmdLine::Versions-Show-Package-Names.
--show-resolver-actions
When executing the command safe-upgrade or when the option --safe-resolver is present, aptitude will display a summary of the actions performed by the resolver before printing the installation preview. This is equivalent to the configuration option Aptitude::Safe-Resolver::Show-Resolver-Actions.
--show-summary[=<MODE>]
<MODE> can be any one of the following:
This option corresponds to the configuration item Aptitude::CmdLine::Show-Summary; if --show-summary is present on the command-line, it will override Aptitude::CmdLine::Show-Summary.
Beispiel 12. Usage of --show-summary --show-summary used with -v to display all the reasons a package is installed:

--show-summary used to list a chain on one line:
$ aptitude --show-summary=all-packages why aptitude-gtk libglib2.0-data Packages requiring libglib2.0-data:
aptitude-gtk D: libglib2.0-0 R: libglib2.0-data
-t <Release>, --target-release <Release>
This will affect the default candidate version of packages according to the rules described in apt_preferences(5).
This corresponds to the configuration item APT::Default-Release.
-V, --show-versions
This corresponds to the configuration option Aptitude::CmdLine::Show-Versions.
-v, --verbose
This corresponds to the configuration option Aptitude::CmdLine::Verbose.
--version
--visual-preview
-W, --show-why
$ aptitude --show-why install mediawiki ... The following NEW packages will be installed:
libapache2-mod-php5{a} (for mediawiki) mediawiki php5{a} (for mediawiki)
php5-cli{a} (for mediawiki) php5-common{a} (for mediawiki)
php5-mysql{a} (for mediawiki)
When combined with -v or a non-zero value for Aptitude::CmdLine::Verbose, this displays the entire chain of dependencies that lead each package to be installed. For instance:
$ aptitude -v --show-why install libdb4.2-dev The following NEW packages will be installed:
libdb4.2{a} (libdb4.2-dev D: libdb4.2) libdb4.2-dev The following packages will be REMOVED:
libdb4.4-dev{a} (libdb4.2-dev C: libdb-dev P<- libdb-dev)
This option will also describe why packages are being removed, as shown above. In this example, libdb4.2-dev conflicts with libdb-dev, which is provided by libdb-dev.
This argument corresponds to the configuration option Aptitude::CmdLine::Show-Why and displays the same information that is computed by aptitude why and aptitude why-not.
-w <Breite>, --width <Breite>
By default and when the output is seen directly in a terminal, the terminal width is used. When the output is redirected or piped, a very large "unlimited" line width is used, and this option is ignored.
This corresponds to the configuration option Aptitude::CmdLine::Package-Display-Width
-y, --assume-yes
This corresponds to the configuration option Aptitude::CmdLine::Assume-Yes.
-Z
This corresponds to the configuration option Aptitude::CmdLine::Show-Size-Changes.
The following options apply to the visual mode of the program, but are primarily for internal use; you generally won't need to use them yourself.
