Note: this option is incompatible with -o, -R, and the global --progress option. -w, --world Download packages needed to satisfy world. Implies --recursive. --simulate Simulate the requested operation without making any changes. Note: this option is unreliable if needed indexes are not up-to- date as this omits refresing or downloading of missing indexes. --url Print the full URL for downloaded packages. 2024-04-29 apk-fetch(8)
