5 <filename>../apt/cache.html/index.html
6 <descrip>
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

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.
