+.TH autoirpm 8 "05 Sep 2000" "Mandrakesoft" "Linux-Mandrake"
+.IX autoirpm
+.SH NAME
+autoirpm \- auto installs the RPM matching your command
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B autoirpm
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+autoirpm *magically* guesses which package you need and installs it.
+Let's imagine that you typed gmix to launch your sound mixer. If it is
+not available, you are then asked if you wish to install the package
+gnome-media which contains the gmix binary...
+.PP
+To do so, launch autoirpm.update-all, which scans all packages known by
+urpmi for all binary executables. It then creates links in respective binary
+directories...
+Use autoirpm.uninstall to remove all links created by autoirpm.update.
+.PP
+use \fBautoirpm.update <name>\fP to update executables contained in packages
+of <name>d media.
+.PP
+use \fBautoirpm.update-all\fP to update executables contained in packages of
+all medias known by urpmi.
+.PP
+use \fBautoirpm.uninstall\fP to remove all links installed by autoirpm.
+.PP
+This feature may be offered for menu icons installing autoirpm-icons package.
+.SH FILES
+/etc/urpmi/autoirpm.deny
+.br
+All binaries contained in packages listed in this file won't lead to an auto install of rpm.
+.PP
+/etc/urpmi/autoirpm.allow
