6 .BI "enalyze " "[global\-options] " "module " "[local\-options]" " TARGET"
10 is a collection of modules for analyzing the state of installed Gentoo packages for
11 USE flags or keywords used for installation, and their current masking status.
13 It can also optionally (re)generate new /etc/portage/package.* files.
18 This is beta software and is not yet feature complete. Some features, options
19 may change in the future. Any files that it generates are saved to your home directory
20 and will not harm your system without effort on your part. It also does not need to be run as root.
27 Output a help message.
31 Be less verbose where possible. In some modules, this option can increase the output speed.
35 Do not colorize output.
39 Turn off automatic pipe detection. Use this option if you do not want
41 to detect if the output is being directed to the screen or to another program
42 and adjust color and verbosity accordingly.
46 Display \fBGentoolkit\fP's version. Please include this in all bug reports. (see
52 uses a system of modules. Each module has both a long and short name.
53 The list below uses the notation "\fBmodule (m)\fP", where \fIm\fP is the short name
54 and \fImodule\fP is the long name.
58 message for a specific module by using
59 .BR "\-h" ", " "\-\-help "
60 as either a global option (after
62 and before the module name) or as a local option (after the module name).
65 .BI "analyze (a) [OPTIONS] TARGET"
66 Report on all installed packages for \fITARGET\fP.
73 Will analyze the installed with USE flags for output results.
77 Will analyze the USE flags information from the installed pkg's 'PKGUSE' file which contains
78 only flags settings from /etc/portage/package.use at the time of installation.
82 Will analyze the recorded keywords for output results.
86 Will analyze the installed packages and portage trees for pkgs that require unmasking and report them.
90 .I R "LOCAL OPTIONS" ":"
94 Will also include any USE flags used that were not enabled for some packages.
98 Gives more detail about the results found and the current task being performed.
104 enalyze a \-\-verbose \-\-unset use
107 Report on all use flags used to install the packages. (\-\-unset) Include in the report all flags
108 that have been used but also were not set enabled for some packages.
109 (\-\-verbose) Also list the packages that used the USE flag setting.
110 The report will break down the useage and report the USE flag up to 3 times indicating its
111 setting {"+","\-"," "= unset} prepended to the flag name.
112 It will also color the output, red = Disabled, blue = Enabled, plain text = unset
116 .BI "rebuild (r) [OPTIONS] TARGET"
117 Create a list all packages for \fITARGET\fP settings that are needed for
118 other than the default settings.
124 Will analyze the USE flags for output results.
128 Will analyze the keywords for output results.
132 Will analyze the installed packages and portage trees for pkgs that require
133 unmasking and produce output/a new /etc/portage/package.unmask file.
135 .I R "LOCAL OPTIONS" ":"
139 Create files/output for all TARGET(s) found to need it. (Not implemented yet)
143 Will prepend the pkg with = as well as use the version information for the entries.
145 e.g.: =CAT/PKG\-VER flag1 flag2
149 Sends the output to the screen instead of a file.
153 Gives more detail about the results found and the current task being performed.
158 enalyze rebuild \-p use
161 Analyze the installed packages database and current system USE flag settings
162 and output the results in the form of:
167 CAT/PKG \-flag1 \-flag2 flag3 flag4...
170 .BI "clean (c) [OPTIONS] TARGET"
171 Clean all packages for \fITARGET\fP settings that are found with obsolete settings
172 for the current settings and pkg ebuild. (Not implemented yet)
178 Will analyze the USE flags and /etc/portage/package.use file(s) for entries that
179 are redundant or no longer used by the pkg.
183 Will analyze the keywords and /etc/portage/package.keywords file(s) for entries
184 that are no longer needed.
188 Will analyze the installed packages, /etc/portage/package.unmask file(s) and
189 portage trees for pkgs that no longer require unmasking.
191 .I R "LOCAL OPTIONS" ":"
195 Clean files/output for all TARGET(s) found to need it. (not implemented yet)
199 Sends the output to the screen instead of a file.
203 Gives more detail about the results found and the current task being performed.
