pacstall: Display information about a package.
$ pacstall --query-info ${package_name}
try on your machine

The command "pacstall --query-info ${package_name}" is used to retrieve information about a specific package in Pacstall, a package manager for Linux distributions.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "pacstall" is the name of the command-line tool used to interact with Pacstall.
  • "--query-info" is an option or flag that specifies the operation to be performed, which is to obtain information about a package.
  • "${package_name}" is a placeholder for the actual name of the package you want to retrieve information about. It's important to replace this placeholder with the name of the package you are interested in.

By running this command and replacing "${package_name}" with the name of an actual package, you will receive detailed information about that package, such as its name, version, description, dependencies, and other relevant details.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
