NAME
       debian-distro-info - provides information about Debian's distributions

SYNOPSIS
       debian-distro-info [OPTIONS]

OPTIONS
       --date=DATE
              date for calculating the version (default: epoch taken from
              SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable if set, otherwise today)

       -h, --help
              display help message and exit

       --alias=DIST
              print the alias (oldstable, stable, testing, unstable) relative
              to the distribution codename passed as an argument.  Only
              distribution codenames composed of lower case ASCII letters are
              accepted, and if the distribution does not qualify as oldstable,
              stable, testing, or unstable, then the same codename passed as
              argument is returned.

       -a, --all
              list all known versions

       -y[MILESTONE], --days[=MILESTONE]
              display number of days until specified version reaches the
              specified milestone.  MILESTONE may be one of created,  release,
              or  eol.  If no milestone is specified, assume release.  For
              options that return a list, display the normal output followed
              by whitespace and the number of days until the specified
              milestone.  If milestone cannot be calculated, the string
              '(unknown)' is displayed.  Unless one of -c, -f or -r is
              specified, only the number of days will be displayed.

       -d, --devel
              latest development version

       -o, --old
              latest old (stable) version

       --supported
              list of all supported versions, including development releases

       -t, --testing

       --unsupported
