......@@ -124,7 +124,19 @@ The following options are available for all commands.
Continue even if binary data will be printed to the terminal.
*--force-broken-world*
Continue even if _world_ cannot be satisfied.
DANGEROUS: Delete world constraints until a solution without conflicts
is found. This does not allow installation of packages with unsatisfiable
dependencies and is mainly intended to be used initramfs boot and is
implied by *--initramfs-diskless-boot*. The primary purpose is to allow
run-from-tmpfs systems to boot if media was upgraded and some packages
are no longer available in the new release.
APK will try to determine the world constraints that causes packages
with conflicting dependencies and start disabling the world constraints
in this order until a satisfiable set of constraints is left. Using this
switch on hard disk installation will likely result in unexpected removal
of some packages. If uncertain, use with *--interactive* or *--simulate*
first.
*--force-missing-repositories*
Continue even if some of the repository indexes are not available.
