NAME

       sbuild-qemu-update - sbuild-update analog for QEMU images

SYNOPSIS

       sbuild-qemu-update [-h] [--snapshot] [--arch=ARCH] [--noexec] image

DESCRIPTION

       sbuild-qemu-update  boots  a  QEMU  VM  using image and then runs apt-get in it, performing update, dist-
       upgrade, clean and autoremove. It can optionally create a snapshot before updating.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              Show this help message and exit.

       --snapshot
              Create a snapshot of the image before updating it. Useful for reproducibility purposes.

       --arch=ARCH
              Architecture to use (instead of attempting to auto-guess based on the image name).

       --noexec
              Don't actually do anything. Just print the command string that would be executed, and then exit.

EXAMPLES

       $ sbuild-qemu-update unstable-autopkgtest-amd64.img

       This will update the image unstable-autopkgtest-amd64.img in the  current  directory.  If  no  such  file
       exists there, then $IMAGEDIR/unstable-autopkgtest-amd64.img is tried.

ENVIRONMENT

       If $IMAGEDIR is unset, then ~/.cache/sbuild is used.
