swupd: Locate the bundle where a wanted package exists.
$ swupd search -b ${package}
try on your machine
The command "swupd search -b ${package}" is used to search for a specific package on a system that uses the Clear Linux OS update manager tool called "swupd".
Here is a breakdown of the command and its components:
- "swupd" is the name of the command-line tool used to manage and update software packages on Clear Linux OS.
- "search" is an argument passed to the "swupd" command that instructs it to perform a search operation.
- "-b" is another argument passed to the "swupd" command, which stands for "best match." It tells the tool to find the best match for the specified package name.
- "${package}" is a placeholder for the actual name of the package you want to search for. You need to replace "${package}" with the actual package name you are looking for.
By running this command and replacing "${package}" with a specific package name, you can search for the package on the system and get information about it, such as its version and description.
