--list-standard-pkgs
Output the list of package-id strings corresponding to receipts in the installer's receipt database that will be verified or
repaired by the --standard-pkgs flag.
--verify Verify the specified package(s).
--repair Repair the specified package(s).
--pkg package-id
Add the specified package to the list of packages to verify or repair.
--standard-pkgs
Add the standard packages to the list of packages to verify or repair. Use --list-standard-pkgs to view this list.

Use a special output format selected by #. Different output formats may be optimized for human or machine readability. The
default output-format is '0', and is a verbose, human-readable format.
NOTES

disk and verify or repair permissions with the repair_packages version on that disk.
