debup

[3.4.0] - 2026-03-29

🚀 Added

• Release tag targeting (@tag): Query, inspect, and install any release tag instead ofbeing forced to use the latest release:
• Supports version pins on installation: dbp -a owner/repo@vX.Y.Z
• Supports release targeting during search & info inspections: fetch and query exact tags directly via GitHub API's /releases/tags/... endpoint.
• Dry-run simulation mode (--dry-run / -d): Safely test and preview any workflow (search, download, install, upgrade, untrack) without modifying the system or the sources.list index.
• Short CLI flag aliases: Standard single-letter POSIX flags for streamlined terminal workflows:
• -a : add / install
• -u : update / upgrade
• -r : remove
• -p : pin
• -n : unpin
• -s : search
• -i : info / show
• -l :list
• -t : token / auth
• Native Bash completion:Autocompletion support for both debup and the dbp alias, featuring context-aware dynamic package suggestionsfor remove, pin, and unpin.

🛡️ Changed

• Network download resilience(curl --retry): Configured --retry 3 --retry-delay 2 on .deb asset downloads to handle transientnetwork hiccups and API packet drops reliably.

🐛 Fixed

• Fixed broken variable substitution syntax ($[CYAN} $\rightarrow$ ${CYAN}) in debup_search preventing unexpected EOF parse crashes.
