update-xmlcatalog - maintain XML catalog files
Contents
Description
update-xmlcatalog add entries to and removes entries from the root XML catalog file, a package XML
catalog file or a local XML catalog file.
Name
update-xmlcatalog - maintain XML catalog files
Notes
update-xmlcatalog is the de-facto standard tool to be used to maintain XML catalog files on a Debian
system, similar to that update-catalog(8) is the standard tool to be used to main SGML catalog files on a
Debian system. A Debian XML Policy document to this effect is currently under development.
update-xmlcatalog and xmlcatalog(1) are incompatible. The former has an internal database of all the
entries in all the XML catalog files it maintains and regenerates the indicated XML catalog file
completely from scratch upon an update. The latter updates the indicated XML catalog file directly.
This means that any change made to an XML catalog file using xmlcatalog(1) is overwritten the next time
that XML catalog file is updated using update-xmlcatalog.
Options
--add
Adds the entry to the root XML catalog file, a package XML catalog file or a local XML catalog file.
If the XML catalog file does not exist yet, it is automatically created.
--del
Deletes the entry from the root XML catalog file, the package XML catalog file or the local XML
catalog file. A resulting empty XML catalog is not automatically deleted from the filesystem.
--filefile
Indicates a local filename.
--idid
Indicates the XML catalog file entry identifier.
--locallocal
Indicates a local XML catalog file.
--packagepackage
Indicates a package XML catalog file.
--root
Indicates the root XML catalog file.
--typetype
Indicates the XML catalog file entry type (public, system, uri).
--help
Displays the usage information.
--verbose
Optional switch to make a verbose output.
--sort
Optional switch to sort the manipulated catalog content.
Tip: To sort a catalog without adding or removing an item, just add an already existing item to the
catalog.
