The command "gnome-software --details ${package_name}" is used in the GNOME desktop environment to open the GNOME Software application with detailed information about a specific package.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
-
"gnome-software" is the command used to run the GNOME Software application. This application provides a graphical user interface for managing software packages on a GNOME-based Linux system.
-
"--details" is an option or flag passed to the gnome-software command. This option tells the GNOME Software application to open the package details view for a specific package.
-
"${package_name}" is a placeholder for the actual name of the package you want to view in detail. You need to replace it with the name of the package you want to see information about. For example, if you want to see details about the Firefox web browser package, you would replace "${package_name}" with "firefox".
By running this command with the appropriate package name, you will open the GNOME Software application and navigate to the detailed view of the specified package. The detailed view typically includes information about the package's description, version, size, dependencies, and possibly user reviews or ratings.
