Canonical showcases Ubuntu Netbook Remix at Computex

Sat, 07 Jun 2008 10:00:00 GMT
This week, Canonical announced a reworked version of Ubuntu at the Computex trade show in Taiwan. The new Ubuntu Netbook Remix (UNR) is specifically built for new so-called "netbooks" -- mini laptops with small screens geared towards Web browsing and built on Intel's new, low-power micro-architecture called Atom. The new version will allow users to access email, browse the Internet, and use instant messaging, and provide online access to music, photos, and videos, all in one small, affordable package.

GERMINATE-PKG-DIFF(1)					  Ubuntu General Commands Manual				     GERMINATE-PKG-DIFF(1)

NAME

     germinate-pkg-diff -- compare seeds against currently installed packages

SYNOPSIS

     germinate-pkg-diff [-l file] [-m {i|r|d}] [-a arch] [seeds]

DESCRIPTION

     germinate-pkg-diff compares the expansion of a list of seed packages against the set of packages installed on the current system.	When con-
     structing seeds for a software distribution, it can be used to iteratively find packages installed on developers' systems that should be
     included in the seeds.

     A list of seeds against which to compare may be supplied as non-option arguments.	Seeds from which they inherit will be added automatically.
     The default is 'desktop'.

OPTIONS

     -l, --list file
	   Read the list of currently installed packages from file.  The default is to read the output of dpkg --get-selections, and any supplied
	   file should be in the same format.

     -m, --mode {i|r|d}
	   Set the output mode as follows:

	   i	 Show the dpkg selections needed to install just these seeds.  List unseeded but installed files as ``deinstall'', and seeded but
		 uninstalled files as ``install''.

	   r	 List unseeded but installed files as ``install'', and seeded but uninstalled files as ``deinstall''.

	   d	 Show the differences between the packages specified by the seeds and the list of installed packages, in a somewhat diff-like for-
		 mat.

     -S, --seed-source source,...
	   Fetch seeds from the specified sources.  The default is http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/seeds/.

     -s, --seed-dist dist
	   Fetch seeds for distribution dist.  The default is ubuntu.precise.

     -d, --dist dist,...
	   Operate on the specified distributions.  The default is precise.  Listing multiple distributions may be useful, for example, when exam-
	   ining both a released distribution and its security updates.

     -a, --arch arch
	   Operate on architecture arch.  The default is i386.

BUGS

     --mode r is useless as dpkg --set-selections input.
