【问题描述】：

“apt”的子命令“depends”在哪里记录，特别是它的输出格式和输出中管道符号的含义？

“man apt”根本没有提到这个子命令。

调用示例：

$ apt depends inxi
inxi
  Depends: pciutils
  Depends: procps
  Depends: <perl:any>
    perl

  Recommends: dnsutils
    bind9-dnsutils
  Recommends: file
  Recommends: hddtemp
 |Recommends: iproute2
  Recommends: net-tools
  Recommends: kmod
  Recommends: lm-sensors
  Recommends: mesa-utils
  Recommends: sudo
    sudo-ldap
  Recommends: tree
  Recommends: usbutils

【解决方案1】：

记录在apt-cache manpages:

depends pkg...

depends shows a listing of each dependency a package has and all 
the possible other packages that can fulfill that dependency.

管道 | 的含义是 or ，在您的示例中：

 |Suggests: wget
 |Suggests: curl
  Suggests: libhttp-tiny-perl

可以翻译成：

Suggests: wget or curl or libhttp-tiny-perl

和

 |Suggests: libcpanel-json-xs-perl
  Suggests: libjson-xs-perl

可以翻译成：

Suggests: libcpanel-json-xs-perl or libjson-xs-perl
