7 | The APT Cache Specification describes the complete implementation and |
8 | format of the APT Cache file. The APT Cache file is a way for APT to parse | |
9 | and store a large number of package files for display in the UI. It's primary | |
10 | design goal is to make display of a single package in the tree very | |
11 | fast by pre-linking important things like dependencies and provides. | |
12 | The specification doubles as documentation for one of the in-memory | |
13 | structures used by the package library and the APT GUI. | |
