SYNOPSIS

       debian-distro-info [OPTIONS]

       --alias=DIST
              print  the  alias (stable, testing, unstable) relative to the distribution codename
              passed as an argument.  Only distribution codenames composed of  lower  case  ASCII
              letters  are  accepted, and if the distribution does not qualify as stable, testing
              or unstable, then the same codename passed as argument is returned.

       -y[MILESTONE], --days[=MILESTONE]
              display number of days until specified version  reaches  the  specified  milestone.
              MILESTONE  may  be  one of created, release, or eol.  If no milestone is specified,
              assume release.  For options that return a list, display the normal output followed
              by  whitespace  and the number of days until the specified milestone.  If milestone
              cannot be calculated, the string '(unknown)' is displayed.  Unless one of -c, -f or
              -r is specified, only the number of days will be displayed.
