NAME
dlocate - program to view debian package information
SYNOPSIS
dlocate [ option ] [ package | string ]
DESCRIPTION
dlocate is a fast alternative to dpkg for queries like `dpkg -L' and `dpkg -S'
OPTIONS
- (none)
- list all records where either package name or filename matches string .
- -h
- Produces a short help message.
- -S
- list records where files match string .
- -l
- simplistic emulation of `dpkg -l'. Shows all packages which match package. Internally this uses egrep on a file containing the reformatted output of `dpkg -l' (four fields separated by one space-character: status, package-name, installed version, description) so it will return packages whose tag-line matches, too. Extended regular expression are allowed. For example, dlocate -l '^.. libc5' will list all the package names starting with `libc5'.) .
