Thank you for your suggestion. I looked at it deeply and found that your idea of finding package information from the command is pretty straight for append information into the database. So we can get package information by running the specific command. So we can use that command to find information and append it into the database. Now we can search for a package by command so that can be helpful also. To automate this process of searching and appending information I think we can use python. Once again thank you.
