NAME

qemu-sbuild-update - QEMU image updater

DESCRIPTION

usage: qemu-sbuild-update [-h] [--snapshot] [--arch ARCH] [--noexec] image

sbuild-update analog for QEMU images.

positional arguments:

Image path. Will be tried first as-is, and if no image exists at that location, then $IMAGEDIR/<image> is tried.

optional arguments:

show this help message and exit
Create a snapshot of the image before updating it. Useful for reproducibility purposes.
Architecture to use (instead of attempting to auto-guess).
Don't actually do anything. Just print the command string that would be executed, and then exit.

EXAMPLES

$ qemu-sbuild-update unstable-autopkgtest-amd64.img

This will run a VM with the image unstable-autopkgtest-amd64.img, and run apt-get update, upgrade, clean, and finally autoremove in the image.

ENVIRONMENT

The image will first be treated as a path. If a file exists at that path, it is used. Otherwise, image will be looked for in $IMAGEDIR, or /var/cache/qemu-sbuild if $IMAGEDIR is unset.
