   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 a completely
   4    valid file.
   5
   6    In some instances involving filenames it is possible to set the default
   7    directory when the path is evaluated. This means you can use relative
   8    paths within the sub scope.
   9
  10    The configuration directives are specified in a tree with {} designating
  11    a subscope relative to the tag before the {}. You can further specify
  12    a subscope using scope notation eg,
  13      APT::Architecture "i386";
  14    This is prefixed with the current scope. Scope notation must be used
  15    if an option is specified on the command line with -o.
