.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.
