efetch and esummary retrieve results from either an Entrez Direct pipeline or an immediate lookup (via -db and -id or -input). esummary is equivalent to efetch -format docsum.
efetch is also the name of an AceDB tool for consulting local sequence databases. To resolve this ambiguity, Debian systems with both AceDB tools and Entrez Direct installed arrange for AceDB's executable to have the name efetch.acedb(1) and for efetch to be a wrapper script that examines its usage and proceeds to run whichever of efetch.acedb(1) or efetch.ncbi looks like a better fit.
