NAME
       update-cudf-solvers - register available CUDF solvers as APT external solvers

SYNOPSIS
       update-cudf-solvers [OPTION]...
       update-cudf-solvers [OPTION]... --remove
       update-cudf-solvers [OPTION]... --list

DESCRIPTION
       update-cudf-solvers maintain the list of installed CUDF solvers and register them as external solvers for APT.

       The first form (without mandatory options) should be invoked each time a new CUDF solver specification file is added to or removed from the
       CUDF solver specification directory (by default /usr/share/cudf/solvers).  update-cudf-solvers will synchronize the differences with APT
       external solvers, by installing suitable symlinks to the /usr/bin/apt-cudf wrapper under /usr/lib/apt/solvers.

       The second form (with the mandatory "--remove" option) will remove all installed external APT solvers that originated from CUDF solvers.
       It's a cleanup operation meant to be used only upon removal of the apt-cudf package.

       The third form just lists available solvers and exit.

       Note that other, non-CUDF based, APT external solvers might be present under /usr/lib/apt/solvers. update-cudf-solvers leaves the untouched
       and act only on (present or past) APT solvers corresponding to CUDF solvers.

TRIGGER-BASED OPERATION
       The directory /usr/share/cudf/solvers is monitored by a dpkg trigger that invokes update-cudf-solvers as needed. In all but exceptional
       circumstances, you should not be required to opearte update-cudf-solvers manually.

OPTIONS
       -d
       --debug
	   Print debugging information during operation.

       -h
       --help
	   Show usage information and exit.

       -l
       --list
	   List available solvers and exit. Both CUDF and APT's external solvers (AKA "EDSP solvers") will be listed.

       -r
       --remove
	   Unregister all CUDF solvers.
