J'aime le paquet debian-goodies :
Description: Small toolbox-style utilities for Debian systems
These programs are designed to integrate with standard shell tools,
extending them to operate on the Debian packaging system.
.
dgrep - Search all files in specified packages for a regex
dglob - Generate a list of package names which match a pattern
.
These are also included, because they are useful and don't justify
their own packages:
.
debget - Fetch a .deb for a package in APT's database
dpigs - Show which installed packages occupy the most space
debman - Easily view man pages from a binary .deb without extracting
debmany - Select manpages of installed or uninstalled packages
checkrestart - Help to find and restart processes which are using old
versions of upgraded files (such as libraries)
popbugs - Display a customized release-critical bug list based on
packages you use (using popularity-contest data)
et aussi moreutils, qui est en fait un super outil de tuyauterie sur roues :
Description: additional unix utilities
This is a growing collection of the unix tools that nobody thought
to write thirty years ago.
.
So far, it includes the following utilities:
- sponge: soak up standard input and write to a file
- ifdata: get network interface info without parsing ifconfig output
- ifne: run a program if the standard input is not empty
- vidir: edit a directory in your text editor
- vipe: insert a text editor into a pipe
- ts: timestamp standard input
- combine: combine the lines in two files using boolean operations
- pee: tee standard input to pipes
- zrun: automatically uncompress arguments to command
- mispipe: pipe two commands, returning the exit status of the first
- isutf8: check if a file or standard input is utf-8
- lckdo: execute a program with a lock held
