This is the command debpkg that can be run in the OnWorks free hosting provider using one of our multiple free online workstations such as Ubuntu Online, Fedora Online, Windows online emulator or MAC OS online emulator
PROGRAM:
NAME
debpkg - wrapper for dpkg
SYNOPSIS
debpkg dpkg-options
DESCRIPTION
debpkg simply invokes dpkg(1) but first becomes superuser so that dpkg is able to install
and remove packages. It also cleans the environment and resets PATH to a sane default:
"/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11" so that local versions of programs are not
run by accident.
REQUIREMENTS
debpkg must be given superuser privileges in some way to function properly. Access to
debpkg with those privileges is the same as having superuser access to your machine.
debpkg will abort if it finds that it neither being run by root nor setuid root.
The devscripts package has been designed to allow debpkg to be made setuid root. This
works by using a compiled wrapper script, which means that suidperl is not required. See
dpkg-statoverride(8) if you wish to make this program setuid root. sudo or super could
also conceivably be used.
Use debpkg online using onworks.net services
