Description: Debian System Wide Information Manager
SWIM is a powerful package information and distribution research tool
for both an installed Debian distribution or not-installed virtual
Debian distribution(s) allowing querying of software packages with a
variety of package information options, and powerful searches. Virtual
options which include ftp, installation, and package removal capabilities
2001-10-12 23:16:40 +00:00
can be seamlessly combined with querying or searches. SWIM can be used on
2001-10-12 20:40:10 +00:00
computer systems which either have, or do not have a Debian distribution
installed.
.
Presently, the virtual options are not working with the new Debian archive
hierarchy, so help information doesn't reflect them anymore. In the near
future, all -n options will be handled directly through apt-cache
information and apt cache management rather than through huge databases.
2001-10-12 23:16:40 +00:00
The virtual filesystem will still be managed by a database, and
2001-10-12 20:40:10 +00:00
Contents.gz listings will also be reinstated.
