These are stomping on the dpkg namespace, are extremely simple wrappers around either «dpkg --set-selections» or «apt-mark». Mark them as deprecated to be able to eventually remove them to avoid ownership confusion. These will be removed after the next Debian release (trixie), in forky.

=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
dpkg-unhold - mark held packages for installation
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
B<dpkg-unhold> [I<package>...]
|
|
|
|
=head1 WARNING
|
|
|
|
This command is B<deprecated>,
|
|
and will be removed during in Debian forky,
|
|
use C<dpkg --set-selections> or C<apt-mark> instead.
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
B<dpkg-unhold> marks package(s) to be installed.
|
|
|
|
It achieves this by running C<dpkg --set-selections> and piping in the
|
|
package name(s) followed by B<install>.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: This program does not install, remove, purge any package. It ONLY
|
|
sets the status of the package. Any actual removal or purging is done
|
|
the next time B<dselect>, B<apt-get>, B<aptitude>, etc are run.
|
|
|
|
=head1 BUGS
|
|
|
|
The name is little bit of a misnomer in that it marks the package for
|
|
installation. This effectively "unholds" the package if it is held, but
|
|
will cause B<dselect>/B<apt>/etc to install it if it wasn't already installed.
