_package_CLI MK4 cmd

The package command is used to view and manage software packages.

Note

The package command can only be used by an administrator.

When package is entered without any actions or parameters, the system displays usage information for the command.

Package files are digitally signed to ensure integrity and authenticity. Package component signatures and their certificate validity are verified when downloading, manually with the verify action, and when actually performing the installation upon reboot.

If the verification fails after downloading, an error message is reported by the download command and the downloaded package is discarded. If verification fails while actually installing upon reboot, installation is canceled and a package install failure notice is added to the messages displayed to administrators. A successful package installation notice is added to the messages upon successful installation.
