       axi-cache rdetails pkgname[s]
              show details of reverse relationships for the given packages

       axi-cache search [terms]
              start a new search

              apt-cache front-ends:

UBUNTU: adding CD-ROM in sources.list

In UBUNTU one has to rely on source.lst for fetching various available updates and interns upgrade. Once modify source.lst file with while running as sudo.

source.lst can be found at "/etc/apt/sources.list"
---------------Content of source.lst ----------------------------------------------------------------

If one has to fetch update from particular website which offer packages for UBUNTU that can be added in this source.lst file and the one can execute below commands:

sudo apt-get update 
sudo apt-get upgrade

To proceed further suppose you have CD-ROM with which you believe can upgrade your system. your add that CD-ROM in source.lst. To perform this
one has to look into "apt-cdrom" command:

vikram@vikram-Veriton-Series:~$ apt-cdrom
apt 0.8.16~exp12ubuntu10.16 for i386 compiled on Nov 15 2013 15:33:51
Usage: apt-cdrom [options] command

apt-cdrom is a tool to add CDROM's to APT's source list. The
CDROM mount point and device information is taken from apt.conf
and /etc/fstab.

Commands:
   add - Add a CDROM
   ident - Report the identity of a CDROM

Options:
  -h   This help text
  -d   CD-ROM mount point
  -r   Rename a recognized CD-ROM
  -m   No mounting
  -f   Fast mode, don't check package files
  -a   Thorough scan mode
  --auto-detect Auto detect drive and mount point
  -c=? Read this configuration file
  -o=? Set an arbitrary configuration option, eg -o dir::cache=/tmp
See fstab(5)

UBUNTU: Using "apt-cache" command for vraious package information

Apt-cahche command offers various services related to information of installed packages:

vikram@vikram-Veriton-Series:~$ apt-cache apt 0.8.16~exp12ubuntu10.16 for i386 compiled on Nov 15 2013 15:33:41
Usage: apt-cache [options] command
       apt-cache [options] showpkg pkg1 [pkg2 ...]
       apt-cache [options] showsrc pkg1 [pkg2 ...]

apt-cache is a low-level tool used to query information
from APT's binary cache files

Commands:
   gencaches - Build both the package and source cache
   showpkg - Show some general information for a single package
   showsrc - Show source records
   stats - Show some basic statistics
   dump - Show the entire file in a terse form
   dumpavail - Print an available file to stdout
   unmet - Show unmet dependencies
   search - Search the package list for a regex pattern
   show - Show a readable record for the package
   depends - Show raw dependency information for a package
   rdepends - Show reverse dependency information for a package
   pkgnames - List the names of all packages in the system
   dotty - Generate package graphs for GraphViz
   xvcg - Generate package graphs for xvcg
   policy - Show policy settings
