.TH "RPMGRAPH" "8" "30 June 2002" "Red Hat, Inc."
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
rpmgraph \- Display RPM Package Dependency Graph
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
|
\fBrpmgraph\fR \fB\fIPACKAGE_FILE\fB\fR\fI ...\fR
|
|
|
|
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fBrpmgraph\fR uses \fIPACKAGE_FILE\fR arguments
|
|
to generate a package dependency graph. Each
|
|
\fIPACKAGE_FILE\fR argument is read and
|
|
added to an rpm transaction set. The elements of the transaction
|
|
set are partially ordered using a topological sort. The partially
|
|
ordered elements are then printed to standard output.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Nodes in the dependency graph are package names, and edges in the
|
|
directed graph point to the parent of each node. The parent node
|
|
is defined as the last predecessor of a package when partially ordered
|
|
using the package dependencies as a relation. That means that the
|
|
parent of a given package is the package's last prerequisite.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The output is in \fBdot\fR(1) directed graph format,
|
|
and can be displayed or printed using the \fBdotty\fR
|
|
graph editor from the \fBgraphviz\fR package.
|
|
There are no \fBrpmgraph\fR specific options, only common \fBrpm\fR options.
|
|
See the \fBrpmgraph\fR usage message for what is currently implemented.
