In exchange options are completely omitted from the output as well as deprecated or obscure commands. (Better) Information about them is available in the manpages anyway and the few options which were listed before were also the least interesting ones (-o -c -q and co are hardly of interest for someone totally new looking to find info by asking for help and anyone with a bit of experience doesn't need this short list. Those would need a list of options applying to the command they call, but they are too numerous and command specific to list them sanely in this context. 2015-11-04T17:04:04Z David Kalnischkies david@kalnischkies.de 2015-10-26T18:30:44Z urn:sha1:9055d5e68bd09f31df00e45bd14cb599ba3735e5 apt is supposed to be a user-friendly interface, so while these commands are usually poweruser material and therefore do not need to be shown in general introduction manpages/help messages its of no use to not allow users to use them. This includes clean, autoclean, build-dep, source, download, changelog, depends, rdepends and showsrc – it doesn't include more non-interactive commands like dump or xvcg as those are usually used by scripts if at all.

The test framework was actually making use of by accident as it ignored the quiet level in output setup for apt before. Eventually we should figure out some better quiet levels for all tools… 2015-11-04T17:04:03Z David Kalnischkies david@kalnischkies.de 2015-10-24T20:43:37Z urn:sha1:e7e10e47476606e3b2274cf66b1e8ea74b236757 All mains pretty much do the same thing, so lets try a little harder to move the common parts into -private to have the real differences more visible.

This change there 'explodes' this single string into new string for each documented string trying hard to split up the translated messages as well. This actually restores many translations as previously adding a single command made all of the bug message fuzzy. The splitup also highlighted that its easy to forget a line, duplicate one and similar stuff. Git-Dch: Ignore
