PIP(1) PIP(1) NAME
pip - install Python packages SYNOPSIS
pip [command] [options] DESCRIPTION
pip is an alternative Python package installer. It performs the same basic job as easy_install, but with some extra features. It can work with version control repositories (currently only Git, Mercurial, and Bazaar repositories), logs output extensively, and prevents partial installs by downloading all requirements before starting installation. It has some disadvantages when compared to easy_install. It does not use egg files, although it does preserve egg metadata. Some setuptools features are not yet supported, and some custom setup.py features won't work. COMMANDS
The command comes before any options. The following commands are recognized: help Show the help text. bundle Create "bundles" which can be used by pip to install the group of Python packages in multiple places. freeze Write the current list of installed packages to a requirements file, which can be used by pip to reinstall the same set of packages. install Install packages. unzip Unzip an individual package. zip Zip an individual package. OPTIONS
-h, --help Show summary of options. --version Show the version of the program. -v, --verbose Be more verbose. -q, --quiet Be less verbose; suppress unimportant output. --log=FILENAME Log file where a complete (maximum verbosity) record will be kept. --proxy=PROXY Have pip use a proxy server to access sites. This can be specified using "user:password@proxy.server:port" notation. If the password is left out, pip will ask for it. --exists-action=EXISTS_ACTION Default action when a path already exists.Use this option more then one time to specify another action if a certain option is not available, choices: (s)witch, (i)gnore, (w)ipe, (b)ackup --timeout=TIMEOUT Set the timeout for connecting to download sites, in seconds. This defaults to 15 seconds if not given. AUTHORS

DEBSNAP(1) DebSnap User Manual DEBSNAP(1) NAME
debsnap - retrieve old snapshots of Debian packages SYNOPSIS
debsnap [options] package [version] debsnap [-h | --help] [--version] DESCRIPTION
debsnap is a tool to help with retrieving snapshots of old packages from a daily archive repository. The only publicly available snapshot archive is currently located at http://snapshot.debian.org By default, debsnap will download all the available versions for package that are found in the snapshot archive. If a version is speci- fied, only that particular version will be downloaded, if available. OPTIONS
The following options are available: -d destination, --destdir destination Directory to place retrieved packages. -f, --force Force writing into an existing destination. By default debsnap will insist the destination directory does not exist yet unless it is explicitly specified to be '.' (the current working directory). This is to avoid files being accidentally overwritten by what is fetched from the archive and to provide a guarantee for other scripts that only the files fetched will be present there upon comple- tion. -v, --verbose Report on the debsnap configuration being used and progress during the download operation. Please always use this option when reporting bugs. --binary Download binary packages instead of source packages. -a, --architecture Specify architecture of downloaded binary packages. Implies --binary. This can be given multiple times in order to download binary packages for multiple architectures. -h, --help Show a summary of these options. --version Show the version of debsnap. CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
debsnap may also be configured through the use of the following options in the devscripts configuration files: DEBSNAP_VERBOSE Same as the command line option --verbose. Set to yes to enable. DEBSNAP_DESTDIR Set a default path for the destination directory. If unset ./source-<package_name> will be used. The command line option --destdir will override this. DEBSNAP_BASE_URL The base url for the snapshots archive. If unset this defaults to http://snapshot.debian.org EXIT STATUS
debsnap will return an exit status of 0 if all operations succeeded, 1 if a fatal error occurred, and 2 if some packages failed to be down- loaded but operations otherwise succeeded as expected. In some cases packages may fail to be downloaded because they are no longer avail- able on the snapshot mirror, so any caller should expect this may occur in normal use. EXAMPLES
debsnap -a amd64 xterm 256-1 Download the binary package of specific a xterm version for amd64 architecture. debsnap -a armel xterm Download binary packages for all versions of xterm for armel architecture. debsnap --binary xterm 256-1 Download binary packages for a specific a xterm version but for all architectures. debsnap --binary xterm Download binary packages for all version of xterm version for all architectures. aptitude search '~i' -F '%p %V' | while read pkg ver; do debsnap -a $(dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_ARCH) -a all $pkg $ver; done Download binary packages of all packages that are installed on the system.
