NAME

       packagesearch — Program to search for debian packages

SYNOPSIS

       packagesearch [options]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the packagesearch program.

       There  is not much to say about it. Start it by typing packagesearch and use the help function offered by
       the program if necessary.

       packagesearch is aimed to help you searching the packages you need. It should make the task of  searching
       a  pleasant  experience.  Originally  I designed it for the purpose of finding a single package where you
       have a clear imagination of what you want. But you can also use it to  simply  browse  your  packages  to
       explore. Perhaps there is something in the database that you simply must have :-).

OPTIONS

       -v  --version
                 Prints the version information.

       -h  --help
                 Prints a usage message.

SEE ALSO

       debtags(1).
