DEBGET-MADISON(1p)

📦 version 1.6, in ubuntu jammy

💖 DEBGET-MADISON 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because this is the manual page for debget-madison, a lil Perl script from the debget crew (that's the 1p situation — user contributed Perl docs, iykyk 🫶).

✨ NAME ✨

debget-madison — literally just tells you what versions of a package are chillin' in Debian. that's the whole gig. 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

debget-madison [switch]... package...

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the vibe: debget-madison shows you what versions of a package are available in Debian. and yes, bestie, that means source or binary packages, we don't discriminate here 💅.

it's giving the madison tool's energy, except the way this one ate is that it can be used from anywhere on the Internet. no cap. you're not locked to some specific machine, you can just pull up and ask. iconic behavior fr fr ✨

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • --debug — turns debugging on. and the way that works is you can specify it multiple times to get more detail each time. so like, more --debug = more yapping about what's going on inside. go off 🐛
  • --help — shows the usage message and then dies. dramatic? yes. correct? also yes. 💀
  • --version — shows the version number and exits. quick little flex, then it's out. 👋

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

both of these are your friends, go say hi 🫶
