dpkg-query:tldr:c3dd4
The command dpkg-query --status ${libc6}
is used to obtain the status of a particular package. Specifically, it retrieves information about the installed package named ${libc6}
.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
-
dpkg-query
: This is the command-line tool in Debian-based systems (such as Ubuntu) used to query information about packages. -
--status
: This option is followed by the package name and is used to retrieve the status of the specified package. -
${libc6}
: This is a placeholder indicating the package name. In this case, it seems like the variable is intended to be replaced with the actual package name.
Overall, the command fetches and displays the status information of a package named ${libc6}
, assuming the variable is correctly substituted with an actual package name when running the command.
