Controlling the output
sbbdep has two types of output:
-
Information messages — e.g. cache synchronisation status
-
Result messages — query results
By default both go to standard output.
--quiet
Suppresses information messages. Query results are still printed.
-f / --file
Writes query results to the specified file instead of standard output.
The file is created if it does not exist.
-v / --version
Prints the version of sbbdep and exits.
-h / --help
Prints the help text and exits.
