# alicia(1)

Make micromodifications or queries to the overrides table

## NAME

alicia - Make micromodifications or queries to the overrides table

## SYNOPSIS

**alicia** \[ *options* \] *package* \[ *section* \] \[ *priority* \]

## DESCRIPTION

**alicia** makes micromodifications and queries the overrides.

## OPTIONS

- **-h/--help**

  Show help and then exit.

- **-d/--done=***BUG#*

  Close the listed bugs as part of adjusting the overrides

- **-n/--no-action**

  Show what alicia would do but make no changes

- **-s/--suite=***suite*

  Affect the overrides in suite listed.  The default is unstable

## COMMON USE

**alicia** when invoked with only a package name will tell you what section and priority the given package has.

**alicia** when invoked with a package and one or two other values will set the section and/or priority to the values given. You may use a single period ('.') to represent "do not change" or you can ommit the value you do not want to change.

## NOTES

alicia essentially lets you do what natalie does only on the microscopic scale rather than the macroscopic scale of natalie. Use with care.

## DIAGNOSTICS

**alicia** returns zero on normal operation, non-zero on error.
