aptd - package managing daemon proving a D-Bus interface
SYNOPSIS
aptd [OPTIONS]
DESCRIPTION
aptd allows to perform package management tasks, e.g. installing or removing software, using a D-Bus interface. The privileges are handled
by PolicyKit so the client application doesn't need to run as root. Furthermore aptd is started by D-Bus activation only when an user calls
a method.
OPTIONS -d, --debug
Show additional information on the command line.
-h, --help
Show information about the usage of the command.
-r, --replace
Replace another aptd instance if it is running.
-p PROFILE_FILE
Write profiling data to PROFILE_FILE using Python's profiler. This is only of use to developers.
-t, --disable-timeout
Do not shutdown the daemon after an idle time.
--dummy
Instead of applying the changes to the system only show a progress. This option is only usable for developers to locate problems in
client applications.
FILES
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20dbus
Adds a small post update hook which will emit the org.debian.apt.CacheChanged signal on the system D-Bus to indicate that the cache
has been changed and a possible running aptd instance should reloade its internal cache.
/usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.debian.apt.policy
The PolicyKit definitions of the privileges used by aptdaemon, e.g. to install packages. To change the privileges please have a look
at PolicyKit.conf(1).
/etc/dbus-1/system.d/org.debian.apt.conf
The D-Bus configuration of the org.debian.apt name space.
DIAGNOSTICS
By default aptdaemon logs to the syslog facility AptDaemon. Furthermore you can use the -d option to get additional information on the com-
mand line.

I want to create a new user and grant him ONLY transfer files access to a specific directory where he can only upload and read the files. He should be restricted to this activity only.
