pk4 binary package in Ubuntu Noble ppc64el
pk4 resolves the specified argument(s) as either:
.
1. the name of a Debian binary package, and selects its Debian source package.
2. the name of a Debian source package, and selects it.
3. or a file path, and selects the Debian source package of the owning package.
.
The source package version is either the installed version (if any) or the
installation candidate, as per “apt-cache policy”.
.
Then, pk4 downloads the entire selected source package (every file referenced
by — and including — its .dsc file) and prints the output directory path.
.
pk4…
