   2 /* This file is an index of all APT configuration directives. It should
   3    NOT actually be used as a real config file, though it is (except for the
   4    last line) a completely valid file. Most of the options have sane default
   5    values, unless you have specific needs you should NOT include arbitary
   6    items in a custom configuration.
   7
   8    In some instances involving filenames it is possible to set the default
   9    directory when the path is evaluated. This means you can use relative
  10    paths within the sub scope.
  11
  12    The configuration directives are specified in a tree with {} designating
  13    a subscope relative to the tag before the {}. You can further specify
  14    a subscope using scope notation eg,
  15      APT::Architecture "i386";
  16    This is prefixed with the current scope. Scope notation must be used
  17    if an option is specified on the command line with -o.
