🌸 man(8) — pkgos-check-changelog 🌸

okay bestie, listen up — this is the manual page for pkgos-check-changelog, a lil script with main character energy that lives in section 8 of the manual. it's not out here changing the world, it's out here fixing your debian changelog and honestly? that's enough. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

pkgos-check-changelog — looks for errors of sorting by versions and formatting errors in debian changelog and tries to correct them. no cap, that's literally the whole job description. 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

pkgos-check-changelog [-a yes|no] [-e disable|notification|perform] [-f
<path_to_the_changelog>] [-s disable|notification|perform] [-h]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so here's the vibe: pkgos-check-changelog goes digging through your debian changelog looking for two things — errors of sorting by versions and formatting errors — and depending on which options you feed it, it'll either just show you what's wrong or actually try to correct it for you. 🫶

and there's more!! it can also clock the situation where a newer version of a package is older than previous packages — yeah, that cursed timeline. it detects that. it's giving version-number detective. 🔍

👑 OPTIONS 👑

  • -a — if you set the parameter to yes, you're telling the script to display information about found anomalies. spill the tea, script. ☕
  • -e — sets the mode for finding format errors. disable means do not perform search of formatting errors, notification means only display errors, and perform means try to correct found errors. choose your fighter. ⭐
  • -f <path> — sets up the path to the changelog file. point it at your file, bestie. 📁
  • -s — sets the mode for sorting by version. disable turns it off, notification displays the difference betwean exist sorting versions order and proposed, and perform tries to correct sorting order. (yes, "turm off" energy — the original said it like that, we keep it like that, periodt.) 💀
  • -h — show help message. when in doubt, -h it out. 🙈

🍓 BUGS 🍓

No known bugs. we're clean, we're flawless, we're that girl. ✨
