NAME
aptitude-run-state-bundle - unpack an aptitude state bundle and invoke aptitude on itSYNOPSIS
- aptitude-run-state-bundle [<options>...] <input-file> [<program> [<arguments>...]]
DESCRIPTION
aptitude-run-state-bundle
OPTIONS
The following options may occur on the command-line before the input file. Options following the input file are presumed to be arguments to aptitude.
--append-args
- Place the options that give the location of the state bundle at the end of the command line when invoking <program>, rather than at the beginning (the default is to place options at the beginning).
--help
- Display a brief usage summary.
--prepend-args
- Place the options that give the location of the state bundle at the beginning of the command line when invoking <program>, overriding any previous --append-args (the default is to place options at the beginning).
--no-clean
-
Do not remove the unpacked state directory after running
aptitude. You might want to use this if, for instance, you are debugging a problem that appears when
aptitude's state file is modified. When
aptitude
finishes running, the name of the state directory will be printed so that you can access it in the future.
This option is enabled automatically by --statedir.
--really-clean
- Delete the state directory after running aptitude, even if --no-clean or --statedir was supplied.
--statedir
- Instead of treating the input file as a state bundle, treat it as an unpacked state bundle. For instance, you can use this to access the state directory that was created by a prior run with --no-clean.
--unpack
- Unpack the input file to a temporary directory, but don't actually run aptitude.
