NAME
     dpkg-vendor - queries information about distribution vendors

SYNOPSIS
     dpkg-vendor [option...] command

DESCRIPTION
     dpkg-vendor is a tool to query information about vendors listed in /usr/lo-
     cal/etc/dpkg/origins. /usr/local/etc/dpkg/origins/default contains informa-
     tion about the current vendor.

COMMANDS
     --is vendor
	    Exits  with  0 if the current vendor is vendor. Otherwise exits with
	    1.

     --derives-from vendor
	    Exits with 0 if the current vendor distribution is a  derivative  of
	    vendor,  otherwise exits with 1.  It uses the Parent field to browse
	    all ancestors of the current vendor.

     --query field
	    Print on standard output the value of the vendor-specific field  for
	    the current vendor.

     --help
	    Show the usage message and exit.

     --version
	    Show the version and exit.

OPTIONS
     --vendor vendor
	    Assumes  the current vendor is vendor instead of discovering it with
	    the  DEB_VENDOR  environment  variable  or	/usr/local/etc/dpkg/ori-
	    gins/default.

ENVIRONMENT
     DEB_VENDOR
	    This  setting  defines  the current vendor. If not set, it will dis-
	    cover the current vendor by reading  /usr/local/etc/dpkg/origins/de-
	    fault.

     DPKG_COLORS
	    Sets  the  color  mode  (since dpkg 1.18.5).  The currently accepted
	    values are: auto (default), always and never.

     DPKG_NLS
	    If set, it will be used to decide whether to  activate  Native  Lan-
	    guage  Support, also known as internationalization (or i18n) support
	    (since dpkg 1.19.0).  The accepted values are: 0 and 1 (default).
