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
|
|
|
|
can be seamlessly combined with querying or searches. SWIM can be used on
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
The virtual filesystem will still be managed by a database, and
|
|
|
|
Contents.gz listings will also be reinstated.
