.SH SYNOPSIS
.PP
\fBapk\fR [<\fIglobal options\fR>.\&.\&.\&] \fIcommand\fR [<\fIoptions\fR>.\&.\&.\&] [<\fIarguments\fR>.\&.\&.\&]
.PP
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
\fBapk\fR manages packages installed on the system.\& The set of top level constraints
on system packages is called the \fIworld\fR (see \fBapk\-world\fR(5)).\&
.PP
\fBapk\fR supports various sub\-commands to query and manipulate \fIworld\fR and package
repositories.\&
.PP
All apk commands which modify the database are logged to /var/log/apk.\&log.\&
.PP
By default apk is non\-interactive.\& See \fBFILES\fR or \fB\-\-interactive\fR on changing
this default to be interactive.\&
.PP
Only \fIglobal options\fR should be specified before \fIcommand\fR.\& For backwards
compatibility a best effort attempt is made to parse applet specific options
before the \fIcommand\fR, but this is deprecated and subject to be removed.\&
.PP
.SH COMMANDS
.PP
Each command is documented in detail on its manual page.\&

.SH OPTION SYNTAX
.PP
The \fIBOOL\fR argument for options is '\&\fByes\fR'\& or '\&\fBno\fR'\&.\&
The \fIAUTO\fR argument for options is '\&\fByes\fR'\&, '\&\fBno\fR'\& or '\&\fBauto\fR'\&.\&
The default value for these arguments is options specific.\&
.PP
For options with an \fIAUTO\fR or \fIBOOL\fR argument, the argument must be specified
with the \fB\-\-option=argument\fR format (that is, the \fB\-\-option argument\fR format
is not supported).\& Additionally the following aliases are available:

.PP
.RE
\fB\-\-force\-broken\-world\fR
.RS 4
DANGEROUS: Delete world constraints until a solution without conflicts
is found.\& This does not allow installation of packages with unsatisfiable
dependencies and is mainly intended to be used initramfs boot and is
implied by \fB\-\-initramfs\-diskless\-boot\fR.\&  The primary purpose is to allow
run\-from\-tmpfs systems to boot if media was upgraded and some packages
are no longer available in the new release.\&
.PP
APK will try to determine the world constraints that causes packages
with conflicting dependencies and start disabling the world constraints
in this order until a satisfiable set of constraints is left.\& Using this
switch on hard disk installation will likely result in unexpected removal
of some packages.\& If uncertain, use with \fB\-\-interactive\fR or \fB\-\-simulate\fR
first.\&
