            "content": "This tool  will print out the value of envvar from /etc/environment.  It will attempt to\nexpand environment variable references in the definition of envvar but will fail if PAM\nitems are expanded.\n\nThe -l option indicates the script should return an environment variable related to default\nlocale information.\n\nThe -s option indicates that the script should return an system default environment variable.\n\nCurrently neither the -l or -s options do anything.  They are included because future\nversions of Debian may have a separate repository for the initial environment used by init\nscripts and for system locale information.  These options will allow this script to be a\nstable interface even in that environment.\n\n\n\nDebian GNU/Linux                             2025-06-12                                PAMGETENV(8)",
