.TH urpmq 8 "10 Apr 2001" "Mandrakesoft" "Linux-Mandrake"
.IX urpmq
.SH NAME
urpmq \- urpmi database query tool.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B urpmq [options] [package_names | rpm_files...]
.SH DESCRIPTION
urpmq allows querying the urpmi database. It is for you if want to list
available packages in the various media of urpmi, or list dependancies of
packages or packages that will be installed if you start urpmi.
.PP
Output format of urpmq is the following according to command line options:
.IP
[group/]package_name[-version][-release]
.SH OPTION
.IP "\fB\--help\fP"
print an help message and exit.
.IP "\fB\--auto-select\fP"
automatically select all packages that have to be upgraded according to already
installed packages and packages listed in various media registered.
.IP "\fB\--headers\fP"
extract headers for package selected to standard output.
.IP "\fB\--sources\fP"
print source url (or file) of all packages selected.
.IP "\fB\--force\fP"
ignore error of inexistant packages requested.
.IP "\fB\-v\fP"
activate verbose mode.
.IP "\fB\-d\fP"
select dependancies (maximal closure).
.IP "\fB\-u\fP"
deselect packages if a better version is already installed, this option can be
used with \fB-d\fP to simulate \fB-M\fP mode of \fBurpmi\fP.
.IP "\fB\-m\fP"
choose minimun closure of requires. This is a relatively
slow algorithm that tries to minimize the number of package to upgrade
to only what is really necessary.
.IP "\fB\-M\fP"
disable minimal closure algorithm so both \fB-d\fP and \fB-u\fP are similar to \fB-M\fP
mode of \fBurpmi\fP.
.IP "\fB\-c\fP"
if maximal closure is used, assume that a package listed mey have wrong or not
up-to-date dependancies. This cause more package to be upgraded and may correct
unresolved dependancies on the rpm database.
.IP "\fB\-g\fP"
print group of each packages listed.
.IP "\fB\-r\fP"
print version and release of each packages listed.
.IP "\fB\-d\fP"
print closure of required packages needed by requested packages on command
line.
