Small toolbox-style utilities for Debian systems

These programs are designed to integrate with standard shell tools, extending them to operate on the Debian packaging system.

dgrep - Search all files in specified packages for a regex dglob - Generate a list of package names which match a pattern

These are also included, because they are useful and don't justify their own packages:

debget - Fetch a .deb for a package in APT's database dpigs - Show which installed packages occupy the most space debman - Easily view man pages from a binary .deb without extracting debmany - Select manpages of installed or uninstalled packages checkrestart - Help to find and restart processes which are using old versions of upgraded files (such as libraries) popbugs - Display a customized release-critical bug list based on packages you use (using popularity-contest data) which-pkg-broke - find which package might have broken another check-enhancements - find packages which enhance installed packages
