NAME
seeded-in-ubuntu - Determine whether a package is safe to upload during a freeze
SYNOPSIS
seeded-in-ubuntu [options] package...
DESCRIPTION
Lists all the current daily images containing the specified packages. Or whether the package is part of the supported seed.

An index of the current manifests is downloaded from UbuntuWire.
OPTIONS
-b, --binary
The packages specified are binary packages. This is faster than source packages, as otherwise we must query LP to determine the
binary packages that every specified source package builds.
-u URL, --data-url=URL
URL for index of seeded packages. Default: UbuntuWire's service at http://qa.ubuntuwire.org/ubuntu-seeded-packages/seeded.json.gz.
-h, --help

All the images that contain unity:
seeded-in-ubuntu -b unity
