-.TH urpmi 8 "12 Oct 2005" "Mandriva" "Mandriva Linux"
-.IX urpmi
-.SH NAME
-urpmi \- rpm downloader, installer and dependency solver
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B urpmi [\fIoptions\fP] [\fIpackage_names\fP | \fIrpm_files...\fP]
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-urpmi authorizes well-known rpms (or rpm files) to be installed including
-all their dependencies.
-You can use it to install the dependencies of a source package, or a source
-package itself.
-
-You can compare rpm vs. urpmi with insmod vs. modprobe or dpkg vs apt-get.
-.PP
-Just launch urpmi followed by what you think is the name of the package(s),
-and urpmi will:
-.br
-\- Propose different package names if the name was ambiguous, and quit.
-.br
-\- If only one corresponding package is found, check whether its dependencies
-are already installed.
-.br
-\- If not, propose to install the dependencies, and on a positive answer,
-proceed.
-.PP
-Note that urpmi handles installations from various types of media (ftp, http,
-rsync, local and nfs volumes, and removable media such as CDROMs) and is able
-to install dependencies from a medium different from the original package's
-media. For removable media, urpmi may ask you to insert the appropriate disk,
-if necessary.
-.PP
-To add a new medium containing rpms, run urpmi.addmedia.
-.br
-To remove an existing medium, use urpmi.removemedia.
-.br
-To update the package list (for example when the ftp archive changes) use
-urpmi.update.
-.SH OPTIONS
-.IP "\fB\--help\fP"
-Print a help message and exit (this is the same as \fB-h\fP or \fB-?\fP).
-.IP "\fB\--update\fP"
-Use only update media. This means that \fBurpmi\fP will search packages and
-resolve dependencies only in media marked as containing updates.
-.IP "\fB\--media\fP \fImedia1,...,mediaN\fP"
-Select specific media to be used, instead of defaulting to all available media (or
-all update media if \fB--update\fP is used).
-.IP "\fB\--excludemedia\fP \fImedia1,...,mediaN\fP"
-Do not use the specified media.
-.IP "\fB\--searchmedia\fP \fImedia\fP"
-Use only the specified media to search for packages when combined with
-\fB\--auto-select\fP.
-.IP "\fB\--sortmedia\fP \fImedia1,...,mediaN\fP"
-Sort the specified media. Substrings may be used to simplify grouping.
-.IP "\fB\--synthesis\fP \fIfile\fP"
-Use the specified synthesis file instead of the urpmi database for
-searching packages and resolving dependencies.
-.IP "\fB\--auto\fP"
-Install all required dependencies without asking.
-.IP "\fB\--auto-select\fP"
-Automatically select all packages that have to be upgraded, according to already
-installed packages and packages listed in various registered media.
-.IP "\fB\--no-install\fP"
-Only download packages, don't install them. You'll find them in
-/var/cache/urpmi/rpms.
-.IP "\fB\--no-uninstall\fP"
-Never ask to uninstall a package but prefer aborting instead. This can be
-safer in auto mode.
-.IP "\fB\--keep\fP"
-When some dependencies cannot be satisfied, change the selection of packages
-to try to keep existing packages instead of removing them. This behaviour
-generally rejects the upgrade of packages given on command line (or when using
-\fB\--auto-select\fP) when a dependency error occurs.
-.IP "\fB\--split-level \fInumber\fP"
-Split urpmi's operation in small transactions when the total number of
-packages to upgrade is greater than the given \fInumber\fP. This option is
-activated by default, and the default value of \fInumber\fP is 20.
-.IP "\fB\--split-length \fIcount\fP"
-Split urpmi's operation in small transactions of at least \fIcount\fP
-packages. The default is 1 and setting this value to 0 just disables splitting
-in small transactions.
-.IP "\fB\--fuzzy\fP"
-Disable fast search on exact package name; that means that urpmi will propose
-all packages matching the name partially, even if one of them matches exactly
-the specified name (this is the same as \fB\-y\fP).
-.IP "\fB\--src\fP \fIname\fP"
-Search a source package matching \fIname\fP and select all its dependencies by
-default, unless \fB\--install-src\fP is used in order to install the source
-package itself.
-.IP "\fB\--install-src\fP"
-Install only the source package (no binary packages will be installed).
-.IP "\fB\--clean\fP"
-Remove all packages from the cache in directory /var/cache/urpmi/rpms.
-.IP "\fB\--noclean\fP"
-Do not remove any package from the cache in directory /var/cache/urpmi/rpms.
-.IP "\fB\--force\fP"
-Assume yes on all questions.
-.IP "\fB\--allow-nodeps\fP"
-With this option, urpmi will ask the user on error whether it should continue
-the installation without checking dependencies. By default, urpmi exits
-immediately in this case.
-.IP "\fB\--allow-force\fP"
-With this option, urpmi will ask the user on error whether it should proceed
-to a forced installation. By default, urpmi exits immediately in this case.
-.IP "\fB\--parallel\fP \fIalias\fP"
-Activate distributed execution of urpmi to other machines (it is mandatory that
-urpmi is installed, but it is not necessary to have media defined on any
-machines). \fIalias\fP defines which extension module is to be used by urpmi
-(currently, \fBurpmi-parallel-ka-run\fP or \fBurpmi-parallel-ssh\fP are
-available) and which machines should be updated. This alias is defined in the
-file /etc/urpmi/parallel.cfg as described below.
-.IP "\fB\--root\fP \fIdirectory\fP"
-Use the file system tree rooted for rpm install. All operations and scripts
-will run after chroot(2). The rpm database that lies in the rooted tree will
-be used, but the urpmi configuration comes from the normal system.
-.IP "\fB\--use-distrib\fP \fIdirectory\fP"
-Configure urpmi on the fly from a distrib tree, useful to install a chroot with
-the \fB--root\fP option.
-.IP "\fB\--wget\fP"
-Use wget for downloading distant files. By default curl is used if
-available, or wget instead.
-.IP "\fB\--curl\fP"
-Use curl for downloading distant files. By default curl is used if
-available, or wget instead.
-.IP "\fB\--limit-rate \fIrate\fP"
-Try to limit the download speed, \fIrate\fP is given in bytes/sec. This option is
-not active by default.
-.IP "\fB\--resume\fP"
-Resume transfer of partially-downloaded files.
-.IP "\fB\--retry\fP \fItimes\fP"
-Retries to download files over FTP or HTTP the specified number of times.
-.IP "\fB\--proxy\fP \fIproxyhost[:port|1080]\fP"
-Use specified HTTP proxy.
-.IP "\fB\--proxy-user\fP \fIuser:password\fP"
-Use specified user and password to use for proxy authentication.
-Specifying \fB\--proxy-user=ask\fP will cause urpmi to prompt for a username
-and a password.
-.IP "\fB\--bug\fP \fIdirectory\fP"
-Create a bug report in \fIdirectory\fP. You have to send a compressed archive of
-the directory to the urpmi maintainer for the bug being (probably)
-reproduced.
-.IP "\fB\--env\fP \fIdirectory\fP"
-Use a different environment directly from a bug report to replay a bug. The
-argument is the same argument given to \fB--bug\fP option.
-.IP "\fB\--verify-rpm\fP"
-.IP "\fB\--no-verify-rpm\fP"
-Activate or deactivate rpm signature checking. It's activated by default.
-.IP "\fB\--test\fP"
-Test (same as \fBrpm --test\fP) installation of packages but do not modify the
-system.
-.IP "\fB\--excludepath\fP \fIstring\fP"
-Do not install files of which the names begin with the given \fIstring\fP (same
-as \fBrpm --excludepath\fP).
-.IP "\fB\--excludedocs\fP"
-Do not install documents files (same as \fBrpm --excludedocs\fP).
-.IP "\fB\--ignoresize\fP"
-Don't check file systems for sufficient disk space before installation. This
-is equivalent to \fBrpm --ignoresize\fP.
-.IP "\fB\--skip\fP \fIpattern,...\fP"
-You can specify a list of packages which installation should be skipped. You
-can also include patterns between //, just like in /etc/urpmi/skip.list (see
-\fIurpmi.files\fP(5)).
-.IP "\fB\--more-choices\fP"
-When several packages are found, propose more choices than the default.
-.IP "\fB\--norebuild\fP"
-Don't try to rebuild the hdlist files from the RPMs if the original hdlist wasn't
-readable or was corrupted.
-.IP "\fB\--strict-arch\fP"
-Upgrade only packages if the newer version has the same architecture as the
-one installed. Mostly useful on machines that support several architectures
-(32 and 64 bit).
-.IP "\fB\-a\fP"
-If multiple packages match the given substring, install them all.
-.IP "\fB\-p\fP"
-Allow search in provides to find package (default).
-.IP "\fB\-P\fP"
-Do not search in provides to find package (this is the opposite of \fB-p\fP).
-.IP "\fB\-y\fP"
-This is the same as \fB--fuzzy\fP.
-.IP "\fB\-s\fP"
-This is the same as \fB--src\fP.
-.IP "\fB\-q\fP"
-Quiet mode: when calling rpm no upgrade status is printed.
-.IP "\fB\-v\fP"
-Proposes a verbose mode with various messages.
