The Missing AIX Documentation Project
Welcome to
AIX - All Intricacies eXplained
List of AIX commands lacking documentation:
- mkinstallp (create installable packages)
- imfs (create FS entries in /etc/filesystems)
- getlvodm (get LVM information from LVCB and ODM)
- ldeletepv (delete phantom disks from ODM)
- lqueryvg (lists various VG information)
- realpath (translate path to absolute form)
- dmpdt_chrp (dump OpenFirmware device tree)
- /usr/lib/nls/lstz (list timezone information)
If you want this list to be expanded, send me (or any other moderator) a message or post here. If you want to write documentation for a command: just do so. We will link your thread gladly to the command here so that your work is easily found.

Hi everybody!
In general the documentation of AIX is well done and rather complete. Still, there are a few undocumented parts of AIX and some of the undocumented commands offer things you just can't get done the "official" way. We once talked about collecting the information we collectively have... (0 Replies)

LEARN ABOUT DEBIAN
dose-outdated
OUTDATED(1) DOSE Tools OUTDATED(1)
NAME
dose--outdated - detect uninstallable packages due to obsolete dependencies
SYNOPSIS
dose--outdated [option] ... file ...
DESCRIPTION
dose-outdated identifies in a debian package repository those packages that are not installable with respect to that repository by the
their inter-package relationships (dependencies, conflicts, ...), and that furthermore cannot become installable (in the current version)
how matter how the rest of the repository evolves. This means that this package has to be updated in the repository to ever become
installable again.
Input Specification
Input files have to contain stanzas in the format of deb-control(5), separated by one blank line. For instance, the Packages files as found
on a Debian mirror server, or in the directory /var/lib/apt/lists/ of a Debian system, are suitable as input. The repository used in the
analysis consists of the union of all packages from the input files.
Output Specification
The output of dose-outdated is in the YAML format.
OPTIONS
-f --failure
Print the list of broken packages
-e --explain
Explain the results in more detail.
-s Print a summary of broken packages.
--dump Dump to standard output in CUDF format the packages that are internally generated and exit (mostly useful for debugging purposes).
--checkonly package[,package] ...
Specifies a list of packages to check. By default all packages are checked.
-v Enable info / warnings / debug messages. This option may be repeated up to three times in order to increase verbosity.
--progress
Display progress bars.
-h, --help
Display this list of options.
