+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBrpm\fR is a powerful \fBPackage Manager\fR,
+which can be used to build, install, query, verify, update, and
+erase individual software packages.
+A \fBpackage\fR consists of an archive of files and
+meta-data used to install and erase the archive files. The meta-data
+includes helper scripts, file attributes, and descriptive information
+about the package.
+\fBPackages\fR come in two varieties: binary packages,
+used to encapsulate software to be installed, and source packages,
+containing the source code and recipe necessary to produce binary
+packages.
+.PP
+One of the following basic modes must be selected:
+\fBQuery\fR,
+\fBVerify\fR,
+\fBInstall/Upgrade/Freshen/Reinstall\fR,
+\fBUninstall\fR,
+\fBSet Owners/Groups\fR,
+\fBShow Querytags\fR, and
+\fBShow Configuration\fR.
+.SS "GENERAL OPTIONS"
+.PP
+These options can be used in all the different modes.
+.TP
+\fB-?, --help\fR
+Print a longer usage message then normal.
+.TP
+\fB--version\fR
+Print a single line containing the version number of \fBrpm\fR
+being used.
+.TP
+\fB--quiet\fR
+Print as little as possible - normally only error messages will
+be displayed.
+.TP
+\fB-v, --verbose\fR
+Print verbose information - normally routine progress messages will be
+displayed.
+.TP
+\fB-vv\fR
+Print lots of ugly debugging information.
+.TP
+\fB--rcfile \fIFILELIST\fB\fR
+Replace the list of configuration files to be read. Each of the files in the colon separated
+\fIFILELIST\fR
+is read sequentially by \fBrpm\fR for configuration
+information.
+Only the first file in the list must exist, and tildes will be
+expanded to the value of \fB$HOME\fR.
+The default \fIFILELIST\fR is
+\fI/usr/\:lib/\:rpm/\:rpmrc\fR:\:\fI/usr/\:lib/\:rpm/\:redhat/\:rpmrc\fR:\:\fI/etc/\:rpmrc\fR:\:\fI~/.rpmrc\fR.
+
+.TP
+\fB--macros \fIFILELIST\fB\fR
+Replace the list of macro files to be loaded. Each of the files in the colon separated
+\fIFILELIST\fR
+is read sequentially by \fBrpm\fR for macro definitions.
+Only the first file in the list must exist, and tildes will be
+expanded to the value of \fB$HOME\fR.
+The default \fIFILELIST\fR is
+\fI/usr/\:lib/\:rpm/\:macros\fR:\:\fI/usr/\:lib/\:rpm/\:macros.d/\:macros.*\fR:\:\fI/usr/\:lib/\:rpm/\:platform/\:%{_target}/\:macros\fR:\:\fI/usr/\:lib/\:rpm/\:fileattrs/\:*.attr\fR:\:\fI/usr/\:lib/\:rpm/\:redhat/\:macros\fR:\:\fI/etc/\:rpm/\:macros.*\fR:\:\fI/etc/\:rpm/\:macros\fR:\:\fI/etc/\:rpm/\:%{_target}/\:macros\fR:\:\fI~/.rpmmacros
+
+.TP
+\fB--pipe \fICMD\fB\fR
+Pipes the output of \fBrpm\fR to the command \fICMD\fR.
+.TP
+\fB--dbpath \fIDIRECTORY\fB\fR
+Use the database in \fIDIRECTORY\fR rather
+than the default path \fI/var/lib/rpm\fR
+.TP
+\fB--root \fIDIRECTORY\fB\fR
+Use the file system tree rooted at \fIDIRECTORY\fR for all operations.
+Note that this means the database within
+\fIDIRECTORY\fR
+will be used for dependency checks and any scriptlet(s) (e.g.
+\fB%post\fR if installing, or
+\fB%prep\fR if building, a package)
+will be run after a chroot(2) to
+\fIDIRECTORY\fR.
+.TP
+\fB-D, --define='\fIMACRO EXPR\fB'\fR
+Defines \fIMACRO\fR with value \fIEXPR\fR.
+.TP
+\fB--undefine='\fIMACRO\fB'\fR
+Undefines \fIMACRO\fR.
+.TP
+\fB-E, --eval='\fIEXPR\fB'\fR
+Prints macro expansion of \fIEXPR\fR.
+
+.PP
+More - less often needed - options can be found on the \fBrpm-misc(8)\fR man page.
+.SS "INSTALL AND UPGRADE OPTIONS"
+.PP
+In these options, \fIPACKAGE_FILE\fR can be either \fBrpm\fR binary
+file or ASCII package manifest (see \fBPACKAGE SELECTION OPTIONS\fR), and
+may be specified as an
+\fBftp\fR or
+\fBhttp\fR URL,
+in which case the package will be downloaded before being
+installed. See \fBFTP/HTTP OPTIONS\fR
+for information on \fBrpm\fR's internal
+\fBftp\fR and
+\fBhttp\fR
+client support.
+.PP
+The general form of an rpm install command is
+.PP
+\fBrpm\fR {\fB-i|--install\fR} [\fBinstall-options\fR] \fB\fIPACKAGE_FILE\fB\fR\fI ...\fR
+.PP
+This installs a new package.
+.PP
+The general form of an rpm upgrade command is
+.PP
+\fBrpm\fR {\fB-U|--upgrade\fR} [\fBinstall-options\fR] \fB\fIPACKAGE_FILE\fB\fR\fI ...\fR
+.PP
+This upgrades or installs the package currently installed
+to a newer version. This is the same as install, except
+all other version(s) of the package are removed after the
+new package is installed.
+.PP
+\fBrpm\fR {\fB-F|--freshen\fR} [\fBinstall-options\fR] \fB\fIPACKAGE_FILE\fB\fR\fI ...\fR
+.PP
+This will upgrade packages, but only ones for which an earlier version is
+installed.
+.PP
+The general form of an rpm reinstall command is
+.PP
+\fBrpm\fR {\fB--reinstall\fR} [\fBinstall-options\fR] \fB\fIPACKAGE_FILE\fB\fR\fI ...\fR
+.PP
+This reinstalls a previously installed package.
+.PP
+.PP
+.TP
+\fB--allfiles\fR
+Installs or upgrades all the missingok files in the package,
+regardless if they exist.
+.TP
+\fB--badreloc\fR
+Used with \fB--relocate\fR, permit relocations on
+all file paths, not just those \fIOLDPATH\fR's
+included in the binary package relocation hint(s).
+.TP
+\fB--excludepath \fIOLDPATH\fB\fR
+Don't install files whose name begins with
+\fIOLDPATH\fR.
+.TP
+\fB--excludedocs\fR
+Don't install any files which are marked as documentation
+(which includes man pages and texinfo documents).
+.TP
+\fB--force\fR
+Same as using
+\fB--replacepkgs\fR,
+\fB--replacefiles\fR, and
+\fB--oldpackage\fR.
+.TP
+\fB-h, --hash\fR
+Print 50 hash marks as the package archive is unpacked.
+Use with \fB-v|--verbose\fR for a nicer display.
+.TP
+\fB--ignoresize\fR
+Don't check mount file systems for sufficient disk space before
+installing this package.
+.TP
+\fB--ignorearch\fR
+Allow installation or upgrading even if the architectures
+of the binary package and host don't match.
+.TP
+\fB--ignoreos\fR
+Allow installation or upgrading even if the operating
+systems of the binary package and host don't match.
+.TP
+\fB--includedocs\fR
+Install documentation files. This is the default behavior.
+.TP
+\fB--justdb\fR
+Update only the database, not the filesystem.
+.TP
+\fB--nodigest\fR
+Don't verify package or header digests when reading.
+.TP
+\fB--nomanifest\fR
+Don't process non-package files as manifests.
+.TP
+\fB--nosignature\fR
+Don't verify package or header signatures when reading.
+.TP
+\fB--nodeps\fR
+Don't do a dependency check before installing or upgrading
+a package.
+.TP
+\fB--nocaps\fR
+Don't set file capabilities.
+.TP
+\fB--noorder\fR
+Don't reorder the packages for an install. The list of
+packages would normally be reordered to satisfy dependencies.
+.TP
+\fB--noplugins\fR
+Do not load and execute plugins.
+.TP
+\fB--noscripts\fR, \fB--nopre\fR, \fB--nopost\fR, \fB--nopreun\fR, \fB--nopostun\fR, \fB--nopretrans\fR, \fB--noposttrans\fR
+Don't execute the scriptlet of the same name.
+The \fB--noscripts\fR option is equivalent to
+
+\fB--nopre\fR
+\fB--nopost\fR
+\fB--nopreun\fR
+\fB--nopostun\fR
+\fB--nopretrans\fR
+\fB--noposttrans\fR
+
+and turns off the execution of the corresponding
+\fB%pre\fR,
+\fB%post\fR,
+\fB%preun\fR,
+\fB%postun\fR
+\fB%pretrans\fR, and
+\fB%posttrans\fR
+scriptlet(s).
+
+.TP
+\fB--notriggers\fR, \fB--notriggerin\fR, \fB--notriggerun\fR, \fB--notriggerprein\fR, \fB--notriggerpostun\fR
+Don't execute any trigger scriptlet of the named type.
+The \fB--notriggers\fR option is equivalent to
+
+\fB--notriggerprein\fR
+\fB--notriggerin\fR
+\fB--notriggerun\fR
+\fB--notriggerpostun\fR
+
+and turns off execution of the corresponding
+\fB%triggerprein\fR,
+\fB%triggerin\fR,
+\fB%triggerun\fR, and
+\fB%triggerpostun\fR
+scriptlet(s).
+.TP
+\fB--oldpackage\fR
+Allow an upgrade to replace a newer package with an older one.
+.TP
+\fB--percent\fR
+Print percentages as files are unpacked from the package archive.
+This is intended to make \fBrpm\fR easy to run from
+other tools.
+.TP
+\fB--prefix \fINEWPATH\fB\fR
+For relocatable binary packages, translate all file paths that
+start with the installation prefix in the package relocation hint(s)
+to \fINEWPATH\fR.
+.TP
+\fB--relocate \fIOLDPATH\fB=\fINEWPATH\fB\fR
+For relocatable binary packages, translate all file paths
+that start with \fIOLDPATH\fR in the
+package relocation hint(s) to \fINEWPATH\fR.
+This option can be used repeatedly if several
+\fIOLDPATH\fR's in the package are to
+be relocated.
+.TP
+\fB--replacefiles\fR
+Install the packages even if they replace files from other,
+already installed, packages.
+.TP
+\fB--replacepkgs\fR
+Install the packages even if some of them are already installed
+on this system.
+.TP
+\fB--test\fR
+Do not install the package, simply check for and report
+potential conflicts.
+.SS "ERASE OPTIONS"
+.PP
+The general form of an rpm erase command is
+.PP
+
+\fBrpm\fR {\fB-e|--erase\fR} [\fB--allmatches\fR] [\fB--justdb] [\fB--nodeps\fR] [\fB--noscripts\fR] [\fB--notriggers\fR] [\fB--test\fR] \fB\fIPACKAGE_NAME\fB\fR\fI ...\fR
+
+.PP
+The following options may also be used:
+.TP
+\fB--allmatches\fR
+Remove all versions of the package which match
+\fIPACKAGE_NAME\fR. Normally an
+error is issued if \fIPACKAGE_NAME\fR
+matches multiple packages.
+.TP
+\fB--justdb\fR
+Update only the database, not the filesystem.
+.TP
+\fB--nodeps\fR
+Don't check dependencies before uninstalling the packages.
+.TP
+\fB--noscripts\fR, \fB--nopreun\fR, \fB--nopostun\fR
+Don't execute the scriptlet of the same name.
+The \fB--noscripts\fR option during package erase is
+equivalent to
+
+\fB--nopreun\fR
+\fB--nopostun\fR
+
+and turns off the execution of the corresponding
+\fB%preun\fR, and
+\fB%postun\fR
+scriptlet(s).
+.TP
+\fB--notriggers\fR, \fB--notriggerun\fR, \fB--notriggerpostun\fR
+Don't execute any trigger scriptlet of the named type.
+The \fB--notriggers\fR option is equivalent to
+
+\fB--notriggerun\fR
+\fB--notriggerpostun\fR
+
+and turns off execution of the corresponding
+\fB%triggerun\fR, and
+\fB%triggerpostun\fR
+scriptlet(s).
+.TP
+\fB--test\fR
+Don't really uninstall anything, just go through the motions.
+Useful in conjunction with the \fB-vv\fR option
+for debugging.
+.SS "QUERY OPTIONS"
+.PP
+The general form of an rpm query command is
+.PP
+
+\fBrpm\fR {\fB-q|--query\fR} [\fBselect-options\fR] [\fBquery-options\fR]
+
+.PP
+You may specify the format that package information should be
+printed in. To do this, you use the
+
+ \fB--qf|--queryformat\fR \fB\fIQUERYFMT\fB\fR
+
+option, followed by the \fIQUERYFMT\fR
+format string. Query formats are modified versions of the
+standard \fBprintf(3)\fR formatting. The format
+is made up of static strings (which may include standard C
+character escapes for newlines, tabs, and other special
+characters) and \fBprintf(3)\fR type formatters.
+As \fBrpm\fR already knows the type to print, the
+type specifier must be omitted however, and replaced by the name
+of the header tag to be printed, enclosed by \fB{}\fR
+characters. Tag names are case insensitive, and the leading
+\fBRPMTAG_\fR portion of the tag name may be omitted
+as well.
+.PP
+Alternate output formats may be requested by following
+the tag with \fB:\fItypetag\fB\fR.
+Currently, the following types are supported:
+.TP
+\fB:armor\fR
+Wrap a public key in ASCII armor.
+.TP
+\fB:arraysize\fR
+Display number of elements in array tags.
+.TP
+\fB:base64\fR
+Encode binary data using base64.
+.TP
+\fB:date\fR
+Use strftime(3) "%c" format.
+.TP
+\fB:day\fR
+Use strftime(3) "%a %b %d %Y" format.
+.TP
+\fB:depflags\fR
+Format dependency comparison operator.
+.TP
+\fB:deptype\fR
+Format dependency type.
+.TP
+\fB:expand\fR
+Perform macro expansion.
+.TP
+\fB:fflags\fR
+Format file flags.
+.TP
+\fB:fstate\fR
+Format file state.
+.TP
+\fB:fstatus\fR
+Format file verify status.
+.TP
+\fB:hex\fR
+Format in hexadecimal.
+.TP
+\fB:octal\fR
+Format in octal.
+.TP
+\fB:humaniec\fR
+Human readable number (in IEC 80000). The suffix K = 1024, M = 1048576, ...
+.TP
+\fB:humansi\fR
+Human readable number (in SI). The suffix K = 1000, M = 1000000, ...
+.TP
+\fB:perms\fR
+Format file permissions.
+.TP
+\fB:pgpsig\fR
+Display signature fingerprint and time.
+.TP
+\fB:shescape\fR
+Escape single quotes for use in a script.
+.TP
+\fB:triggertype\fR
+Display trigger suffix.
+.TP
+\fB:vflags\fR
+File verification flags.
+.TP
+\fB:xml\fR
+Wrap data in simple xml markup.
+.PP
+For example, to print only the names of the packages queried,
+you could use \fB%{NAME}\fR as the format string.
+To print the packages name and distribution information in
+two columns, you could use \fB%-30{NAME}%{DISTRIBUTION}\fR.
+\fBrpm\fR will print a list of all of the tags it knows about when it
+is invoked with the \fB--querytags\fR argument.
+.PP
+There are two subsets of options for querying: package selection,
+and information selection.
+.SS "PACKAGE SELECTION OPTIONS:"
+.PP
+.TP
+\fB\fIPACKAGE_NAME\fB\fR
+Query installed package named \fIPACKAGE_NAME\fR. To specify the package more precisely the package name may be followed by the version or version and release
+both separated by a dash or an architecture name separated by a dot. See the output of \fBrpm -qa\fR or \fBrpm -qp \fIPACKAGE_FILE\fB\fR as an example.
+
+.TP
+\fB-a, --all [\fISELECTOR\fR]\fR
+Query all installed packages.
+
+An optional \fISELECTOR\fR in the form of tag=pattern can be provided to
+narrow the selection, for example name="b*" to query packages whose name
+starts with "b".
+.TP
+\fB--dupes\fB
+List duplicated packages.
+.TP
+\fB-f, --file \fIFILE\fB\fR
+Query package owning \fIFILE\fR.
+.TP
+\fB--filecaps\fR
+List file names with POSIX1.e capabilities.
+.TP
+\fB--fileclass\fR
+List file names with their classes (libmagic classification).
+.TP
+\fB--filecolor\fR
+List file names with their colors (0 for noarch, 1 for 32bit, 2 for 64 bit).
+.TP
+\fB--fileprovide\fR
+List file names with their provides.
+.TP
+\fB--filerequire\fR
+List file names with their requires.
+.TP
+\fB-g, --group \fIGROUP\fB\fR
+Query packages with the group of \fIGROUP\fR.
+.TP
+\fB--hdrid \fISHA1\fB\fR
+Query package that contains a given header identifier, i.e. the
+\fISHA1\fR digest of the immutable header region.
+.TP
+\fB-p, --package \fIPACKAGE_FILE\fB\fR
+Query an (uninstalled) package \fIPACKAGE_FILE\fR.
+The \fIPACKAGE_FILE\fR may be specified
+as an \fBftp\fR or \fBhttp\fR style URL, in
+which case the package header will be downloaded and queried.
+See \fBFTP/HTTP OPTIONS\fR for information on
+\fBrpm\fR's internal
+\fBftp\fR and
+\fBhttp\fR
+client support. The \fIPACKAGE_FILE\fR argument(s),
+if not a binary package, will be interpreted as an ASCII package
+manifest unless \fB--nomanifest\fR option is used.
+In manifests, comments are permitted, starting with a '#', and each
+line of a package manifest file may include white space separated
+glob expressions, including URL's,
+that will be expanded to paths that are substituted in place of
+the package manifest as additional \fIPACKAGE_FILE\fR
+arguments to the query.
+.TP
+\fB--pkgid \fIMD5\fB\fR
+Query package that contains a given package identifier, i.e. the
+\fIMD5\fR digest of the combined header and
+payload contents.
+.TP
+\fB--querybynumber \fIHDRNUM\fB\fR
+Query the \fIHDRNUM\fRth database entry
+directly; this is useful only for debugging.
+.TP
+\fB--specfile \fISPECFILE\fB\fR
+Parse and query \fISPECFILE\fR as if
+it were a package. Although not all the information (e.g. file lists)
+is available, this type of query permits rpm to be used to extract
+information from spec files without having to write a specfile
+parser.

+.SS "VERIFY OPTIONS"
+.PP
+The general form of an rpm verify command is
+.PP
+
+\fBrpm\fR {\fB-V|--verify\fR} [\fBselect-options\fR] [\fBverify-options\fR]
+
+.PP
+Verifying a package compares information about the installed files in
+the package with information about the files taken from the package
+metadata stored in the rpm database. Among other things, verifying
+compares the size, digest, permissions, type, owner and group of
+each file. Any discrepancies are displayed.
+Files that were not installed from the package, for example,
+documentation files excluded on installation using the
+"\fB--excludedocs\fR" option,
+will be silently ignored.
+.PP
+The package selection options are the same as for package
+querying (including package manifest files as arguments).
+Other options unique to verify mode are:
+.TP
+\fB--nodeps\fR
+Don't verify dependencies of packages.
+.TP
+\fB--nodigest\fR
+Don't verify package or header digests when reading.
+.TP
+\fB--nofiles\fR
+Don't verify any attributes of package files.
+.TP
+\fB--noghost\fR
+Don't verify ghost files.
+.TP
+\fB--noconfig\fR
+Don't verify config files.
+.TP
+\fB--noscripts\fR
+Don't execute the \fB%verifyscript\fR scriptlet (if any).
+.TP
+\fB--nosignature\fR
+Don't verify package or header signatures when reading.
+.TP
+\fB--nolinkto\fR
+.TP
+\fB--nofiledigest\fR (formerly \fB--nomd5\fR)
+.TP
+\fB--nosize\fR
+.TP
+\fB--nouser\fR
+.TP
+\fB--nogroup\fR
+.TP
+\fB--nomtime\fR
+.TP
+\fB--nomode\fR
+.TP
+\fB--nordev\fR
+Don't verify the corresponding file attribute.
+.TP
+\fB--nocaps\fR
+Don't verify file capabilities.
+.PP
+The format of the output is a string of 9 characters, a possible
+attribute marker:
+
+.nf
+\fBc\fR \fB%config\fR configuration file.
+\fBd\fR \fB%doc\fR documentation file.
+\fBg\fR \fB%ghost\fR file (i.e. the file contents are not included in the package payload).
+\fBl\fR \fB%license\fR license file.
+\fBr\fR \fB%readme\fR readme file.
+.fi
+
+from the package header, followed by the file name.
+Each of the 9 characters denotes the result of a comparison of
+attribute(s) of the file to the value of those attribute(s) recorded
+in the database. A single
+"\fB.\fR" (period)
+means the test passed, while a single
+"\fB?\fR" (question mark)
+indicates the test could not be performed (e.g. file permissions
+prevent reading). Otherwise, the (mnemonically
+em\fBB\fRoldened) character denotes failure of
+the corresponding \fB--verify\fR test:
+
+.nf
+\fBS\fR file \fBS\fRize differs
+\fBM\fR \fBM\fRode differs (includes permissions and file type)
+\fB5\fR digest (formerly MD\fB5\fR sum) differs
+\fBD\fR \fBD\fRevice major/minor number mismatch
+\fBL\fR read\fBL\fRink(2) path mismatch
+\fBU\fR \fBU\fRser ownership differs
+\fBG\fR \fBG\fRroup ownership differs
+\fBT\fR m\fBT\fRime differs
+\fBP\fR ca\fBP\fRabilities differ

+\fB--restore\fR instead.
+.TP
+\fBrpm\fR \fB--setugids\fR \fIPACKAGE_NAME\fR
+sets user/group ownership of files in the given package. This command can
+change permissions and capabilities of files in that package. In most
+cases it is better to use \fB--restore\fR instead.
+.TP
+\fBrpm\fR \fB--setcaps\fR \fIPACKAGE_NAME\fR
+sets capabilities of files in the given package. Consider using
+\fB--restore\fR instead.
+.TP
+\fBrpm\fR \fB--restore\fR \fIPACKAGE_NAME\fR
+The option restores owner, group, permissions and capabilities of files
+in the given package.
+.TP
+Options \fB--setperms\fR, \fB--setugids\fR, \fB--setcaps\fR and
+\fB--restore\fR are mutually exclusive.
+
+.SS "FTP/HTTP OPTIONS"
+.PP
+\fBrpm\fR can act as an FTP and/or HTTP client so
+that packages can be queried or installed from the internet.
+Package files for install, upgrade, and query operations may be
+specified as an
+\fBftp\fR or
+\fBhttp\fR
+style URL:
+.PP
+ftp://USER:PASSWORD@HOST:PORT/path/to/package.rpm
+.PP
+If the \fB:PASSWORD\fR portion is omitted, the password will be
+prompted for (once per user/hostname pair). If both the user and
+password are omitted, anonymous \fBftp\fR is used.
+In all cases, passive (PASV) \fBftp\fR transfers are
+performed.
+.PP
+\fBrpm\fR allows the following options to be used with
+ftp URLs:
+.TP
+\fB--ftpproxy \fIHOST\fB\fR
+The host \fIHOST\fR will be used as a proxy server
+for all ftp transfers, which allows users to ftp through firewall
+machines which use proxy systems. This option may also be specified
+by configuring the macro \fB%_ftpproxy\fR.
+.TP
+\fB--ftpport \fIPORT\fB\fR
+The TCP \fIPORT\fR number to use for
+the ftp connection on the proxy ftp server instead of the default
+port. This option may also be specified by configuring the macro
+\fB%_ftpport\fR.
+.PP
+\fBrpm\fR allows the following options to be used with
+\fBhttp\fR URLs:
+.TP
+\fB--httpproxy \fIHOST\fB\fR
+The host \fIHOST\fR will be used as
+a proxy server for all \fBhttp\fR transfers. This
+option may also be specified by configuring the macro
+\fB%_httpproxy\fR.
+.TP
+\fB--httpport \fIPORT\fB\fR
+The TCP \fIPORT\fR number to use for the
+\fBhttp\fR connection on the proxy http server instead
+of the default port. This option may also be specified by configuring
+the macro \fB%_httpport\fR.
