Perl-style regular expressions are allowed. B<urpmf> will +then print a list of matching files, with their corresponding packages. By +using options, you may format output differently, and search through other +rpm tags. Note that B<urpmf> searches through the urpmi media (B<not> in +the system's rpm database -- for that you should use rpm(8) instead). + +=head1 OPTIONS + +=over + +=item B<--help> + +Prints a help message and exits. + +=item B<--version> + +Prints the version number and exits. + +=item B<--env> I<directory> + +Use a different environment directly out of a bug report tarball. + +=item B<--excludemedia> I<medium1,...,mediumN> + +Do not use the given media. + +=item B<--literal> + +Match literally instead of interpreting the argument as a regular +expression. + +=item B<-l> + +Equivalent to B<--literal>. + +=item B<--media> I<medium1,...,mediumN> + +Select specific media to be used, instead of defaulting to all available +media (or all update media if B<--update> is used). + +=item B<--sortmedia> I<medium1,...,mediumN> + +Sort the given media, substrings may be used to simplify grouping. + +=item B<--synthesis> I<file> + +Use the given synthesis file instead of urpmi db for searching packages. + +=item B<--uniq> + +Do not print identical lines twice. + +=item B<--update> + +Use only update media. This means B<urpmf> will only search through media +marked as update. + +=item B<--verbose> + +Verbose mode. B<urpmf> will emit various messages related to the parsing of +hdlist files for your media. + +=item B<-i> + +Ignore case distinctions in any patterns. + +=item B<-F> I<string> + +Change field separator to I<string> for the rest of the output line (it +defaults to ':') + +=item B<--qf> I<format-string> + +Specify a printf-like output format. + +=item B<--arch> + +Prints the architecture tag. + +=item B<--buildhost> + +Prints the BuildHost tag. + +=item B<--buildtime> + +Prints the +BuildTime tag. + +=item B<--conffiles> + +Prints the list of configuration files contained +in the package. (Might be empty.) + +=item B<--conflicts> + +Prints the Conflicts tags. + +=item B<--description> + +Prints the Description tag. + +=item B<--distribution> + +Prints the Distribution tag. + +=item B<--epoch> + +Prints the Epoch tag. + +=item B<--filename> + +Prints package file names. + +=item B<--files> + +Prints the list of files contained in the rpm (this is the default if you +specify no field). + +=item B<--group> + +Prints the Group tag. + +=item B<--name> + +Prints package names. + +=item B<--obsoletes> + +Prints the Obsoletes tags. + +=item B<--packager> + +Prints the Packager tag. + +=item B<--provides> + +Prints the Provides tags. + +=item B<--requires> + +Prints the Requires tag. + +=item B<--size> + +Prints the Size tag. + +=item B<--sourcerpm> + +Prints the names of source rpms. + +=item B<--summary> + +Prints the Summary tag. + +=item B<--url> + +Prints the packages' URL. + +=item B<--vendor> + +Prints the Vendor tag. + +=item B<-m> + +Print the name of the media in which the +package has been found. + +=item B<-f> + +Print version, release and arch along with name +of package. This modifies the effect of the I<--name> option. + +=item B<-e> + +Include code directly +in the perl search expression. Use it with B<--debug> to look at the generated +perl code. In any cases, use it only if you know perl. + +=item B<-a> + +Binary AND operator, true if both expressions are true. + +=item B<-o> + +Binary OR operator, true if one expression is true. + +=item B<!> + +Unary NOT, true if expression is false. + +=item B<(> + +Left parenthesis to open a group expression. + +=item B<)> + +Right parenthesis to close a group expression. + +=item B<--debug> + +Includes debugging output. + +=back + +=head1 FORMAT + +The options to select tags (B<--arch>, B<--buildhost> and so on) control +the output format of urpmf. If not explicitly specified somewhere else, +the name of the rpm is printed first. Fields are separated by C<:> until +specified otherwise. + +You can also use B<--qf> for that. It takes a format string, where tags to +be replaced are specified as B<%>I<[-][number]>B<tagname>. The optional +number indicates the length of the space-padding and the B<-> character +its justification (like in printf(3)). + +=head1 EXPRESSIONS + +The boolean operator switches allow you to construct complex expressions +from regexps. Those expressions are then matched against the whole output +line. + +=head1 EXAMPLE + +This command will list all C<perl-Apache> modules, and list them along +with the media in which they're been found, nicely indented : + + urpmf --qf '%-30name is found in media %media' perl-Apache + +=head1 FILES + +See urpmi.files(5). + +=head1 SEE ALSO + +urpmi.addmedia(8), urpmi.update(8), urpmi.removemedia(8), urpmi(8), +urpmq(8), urpmi.files(5). + +=head1 AUTHOR + +Pascal Rigaux (original author), FranE<ccedil>ois Pons, Rafael +Garcia-Suarez <rgarciasuarez@mandriva.com> (current maintainer) |
