salt.modules.dpkg¶

Support for DEB packages

salt.modules.dpkg.file_dict(*packages)¶

List the files that belong to a package, grouped by package. Not specifying any packages will return a list of _every_ file on the system's package database (not generally recommended).

CLI Examples:

salt '*' lowpkg.file_list httpd
salt '*' lowpkg.file_list httpd postfix
salt '*' lowpkg.file_list

salt.modules.dpkg.file_list(*packages)¶

List the files that belong to a package. Not specifying any packages will return a list of _every_ file on the system's package database (not generally recommended).

CLI Examples:

salt '*' lowpkg.file_list httpd
salt '*' lowpkg.file_list httpd postfix
salt '*' lowpkg.file_list

salt.modules.dpkg.list_pkgs(*packages)¶

List the packages currently installed in a dict:

{'<package_name>': '<version>'}

External dependencies:

Virtual package resolution requires aptitude. Because this function
uses dpkg, virtual packages will be reported as not installed.

CLI Example:

salt '*' lowpkg.list_pkgs
salt '*' lowpkg.list_pkgs httpd

salt.modules.dpkg.unpurge(*packages)¶

Change package selection for each package specified to 'install'

CLI Example:

salt '*' lowpkg.unpurge curl
