# NAME
|
|
|
|
apk version - compare package versions
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
*apk version* [<_options_>...] [_packages_...]
|
|
|
|
*apk version* -c _versions_...
|
|
|
|
*apk version* -t _version1_ _version2_
|
|
|
|
*apk version* -I
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
*apk version* compares the versions of installed packages against package
|
|
versions available from repositories (see *apk-repositories*(5)). It can also
|
|
be used to validate and compare version strings.
|
|
|
|
In default mode, if no packages are specified, all installed packages are
|
|
considered. Otherwise, the comparison is limited to the explicitly listed
|
|
packages. A summary is printed on stdout, with the difference between package
|
|
versions being represented as *>*, *=*, or *<*.
|
|
|
|
*apk version -c* tests the specified version string(s) for validity and prints
|
|
a list of _invalid_ version strings. If all version strings are valid, nothing
|
|
is printed and *apk version* exits with status code zero. If one or more
|
|
version strings are invalid, the exit code is nonzero.
|
|
|
|
*apk version -t* accepts two arbitrary version strings and compares them
|
|
without consulting the database, then prints the result as *>*, *=*, or *<*.
|
|
|
|
*apk version -I* prints the versions and descriptions of each repository's
|
|
index. See *apk-repositories*(5) for more information.
|
|
|
|
# OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
These options only apply when checking installed package versions against
|
|
packages available from the repositories (when neither *-c*, *-t*, nor *-I* are
|
|
specified).
|
|
|
|
*-a*
|
|
Consider packages from all repository tags.
|
|
|
|
*-l* _operand_
|
|
Limit to packages with output matching given _operand_. The _operand_
|
|
can be specified as any combination of *>*, *=*, and *<*.
