APT(8)                                                           APT                                                           APT(8)

NAME
       apt - command-line interface

SYNOPSIS
       apt [-h] [-o=config_string] [-c=config_file] [-t=target_release] [-a=architecture] {list | search | show | update |
           install pkg [{=pkg_version_number | /target_release}]...  | remove pkg...  | upgrade | full-upgrade | edit-sources |
           {-v | --version} | {-h | --help}}

DESCRIPTION
       apt (Advanced Package Tool) is the command-line tool for handling packages. It provides a commandline interface for the
       package management of the system. See also apt-get(8) and apt-cache(8) for more low-level command options.

       list
           list is used to display a list of packages. It supports shell pattern for matching package names and the following
           options: --installed, --upgradable, --all-versions are supported.

       search
           search searches for the given term(s) and display matching packages.

       show
           show shows the package information for the given package(s).

       install
           install is followed by one or more package names desired for installation or upgrading.

           A specific version of a package can be selected for installation by following the package name with an equals and the
           version of the package to select. This will cause that version to be located and selected for install. Alternatively a
           specific distribution can be selected by following the package name with a slash and the version of the distribution or
           the Archive name (stable, testing, unstable).

       remove
           remove is identical to install except that packages are removed instead of installed. Note that removing a package leaves
           its configuration files on the system. If a plus sign is appended to the package name (with no intervening space), the
           identified package will be installed instead of removed.

       edit-sources
           edit-sources lets you edit your sources.list file and provides basic sanity checks.

       update
           update is used to resynchronize the package index files from their sources.

       upgrade
           upgrade is used to install the newest versions of all packages currently installed on the system from the sources
           enumerated in /etc/apt/sources.list. New package will be installed, but existing package will never removed.

       full-upgrade
           full-upgrade performs the function of upgrade but may also remove installed packages if that is required in order to
           resolve a package conflict.

OPTIONS
       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.
