synopkg: List packages which depend on a specific package.
$ synopkg list --depend-on ${package}
try on your machine

The command synopkg list --depend-on ${package} is a command used to list all the packages that depend on a specific package (${package}).

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  1. synopkg: This is the command-line tool used to manage packages on a Synology NAS (Network Attached Storage) device.

  2. list: This is a subcommand of synopkg, used to list packages and their details.

  3. --depend-on: This is an option for the list subcommand, specifying that we want to list packages that depend on a specific package.

  4. ${package}: This is a placeholder that represents the name of the package we want to check for dependencies. You would replace ${package} with the actual name of the package you want to see the dependencies for.

By running this command, you will get a list of packages that depend on the specified package, showing the package name and other details.
