# DESCRIPTION

*apk info* prints information known about the listed packages. By default, it
prints the description, webpage, and installed size of the package (equivalent
to *apk info -dws*).

Each field printed is prefaced by the name of the package and its package
version, then the field to be displayed, and a newline. The following lines
display the appropriate information, then an empty line terminates that field.

*apk info -W* _file_ prints the package which owns the specified file.
