SYNOPSIS

       dpkg-vendor [option...] command

       the current vendor.

       --derives-from vendor
	      Exits with 0 if the current vendor distribution is a derivative of vendor, otherwise exits with non-zero. It uses the "Parent" field
	      to browse all ancestors of the current vendor.

       --query field

       --help Show the usage message and exit.

       --version

OPTIONS

       --vendor vendor

	      gins/default.

ENVIRONMENT
