CHDIST
NAMESYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
OPTIONS
COMMANDS
COPYRIGHT
NAME
chdist - script to easily play with several distributions
SYNOPSIS
chdist [ options ] [ command ] [ command parameters ]
chdist [ options ] DIST command [ command parameters ]
The second syntax is accepted when the DIST does not match one of the known commands from the list below (see "COMMANDS"). Then the command may be any program available on the system and anything based on apt will be using the DIST apt data.
DESCRIPTION
chdist is a rewrite of what used to be known as ’MultiDistroTools’ (or mdt). Its use is to create ’APT trees’ for several distributions, making it easy to query the status of packages in other distribution without using chroots, for instance.
OPTIONS
-h , --help
Provide a usage message.
-d , --data-dir DIR
Choose data directory (default: ˜/.chdist/ ).
-a , --arch ARCH
Choose architecture (default: ‘ dpkg --print-architecture ‘).
--version
Display version information.
