=head1 NAME
apt-why - filtered reverse dependency displayer using AptPkg::Cache
=head1 SYNOPSIS
B<apt-why> [ I<options> ] I<package>
=head1 DESCRIPTION
B<apt-why> recursively displays I<package>'s reverse dependencies, thus
showing which installed packages require I<package> on the system.
=head1 OPTIONS
=over
=item B<--all>
Consider all packages, not just installed ones
=item B<--depth>=I<integer> (default: 5)
Specify the maximum recursion depth
=item B<--deptype>=I<types>
Only show reverse dependencies which mach the specified I<types> (comma separated list).
Right now, possible types are Depends, Suggests, Recommends.
=back
=head1 EXIT STATUS
Zero on success, non-zero on error (i.e. no such package).
=head1 CONFIGURATION
None.
=head1 DEPENDENCIES
This program requires the perl module B<AptPkg::Cache>. On Debian, it is
available via the package B<libapt-pkg-perl>.
=head1 BUGS AND LIMITATIONS
