.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
If a \fIpkgname\fR is given, information for all packages matching that name in
all databases will be displayed.
.PP
If \fIstdin\fR is not connected to a terminal, packages will be read from
\&\fIstdin\fR.
.SH OPTIONS
.IX Header "OPTIONS"
.IP \fB\-\-config\fR=\fIpath\fR 4
.IX Item "--config=path"
Set an alternate configuration file path.
.IP \fB\-\-dbext\fR=\fIextension\fR 4
.IX Item "--dbext=extension"
Set an alternate sync database extension.
.IP \fB\-\-dbpath\fR=\fIpath\fR 4
.IX Item "--dbpath=path"
Set an alternate database path.
.IP \fB\-\-root\fR=\fIpath\fR 4
.IX Item "--root=path"
Set an alternate installation root.
.IP \fB\-\-sysroot\fR=\fIpath\fR 4
.IX Item "--sysroot=path"
Set an alternate system root. See \fBpacutils\-sysroot\fR\|(7).
.IP \fB\-\-null\fR[=\fIsep\fR] 4
.IX Item "--null[=sep]"
Set an alternate separator for values parsed from \fIstdin\fR. By default
a newline \f(CW\*(C`\en\*(C'\fR is used as the separator. If \fB\-\-null\fR is used without
specifying \fIsep\fR \f(CW\*(C`NUL\*(C'\fR will be used.
.IP \fB\-\-no\-timeout\fR 4
.IX Item "--no-timeout"
Disable low-speed timeouts for downloads.
.IP \fB\-\-short\fR 4
.IX Item "--short"
Display brief information. Suitable for printing a potentially large number of
packages:
.Sp
.Vb 1
\& pacsift \-\-name libreoffice | pacinfo \-\-short
.Ve
.IP \fB\-\-verbose\fR 4
.IX Item "--verbose"
Display additional package information: \f(CW\*(C`required by\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`optional for\*(C'\fR, and
\&\f(CW\*(C`base64 signature\*(C'\fR.
.IP \fB\-\-raw\fR 4
.IX Item "--raw"
Display raw numeric size and date values.
.IP \fB\-\-removable\-size\fR 4
.IX Item "--removable-size"
Include the size of any removable dependencies in installed size.
.IP \fB\-\-help\fR 4
.IX Item "--help"
Display usage information and exit.
.IP \fB\-\-version\fR 4
.IX Item "--version"
Display version information and exit.
.SH CAVEATS
.IX Header "CAVEATS"
\&\fBpacinfo\fR determines whether or not to read packages from \fIstdin\fR based on
a naive check using \fBisatty\fR\|(3). If \fBpacinfo\fR is called in an environment,
such as a shell function or script being used in a pipe, where \fIstdin\fR is not
connected to a terminal but does not contain packages to print, \fBpacinfo\fR
should be called with \fIstdin\fR closed. For POSIX-compatible shells, this can
be done with \f(CW\*(C`<&\-\*(C'\fR.
