NAME

urpmi - rpm wrapper making installs easier for the user
 

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

You can compare rpm vs. urpmi with insmod vs. modprobe or dpkg vs apt-get

All users belonging to group urpmi are allowed to install packages.
Just launch urpmi followed by what you think is the name of the package(s), and urpmi will:
- Propose different package names if availables and quit.
- If only one corresponding package is found, check whether dependencies are already installed, or not.
- If not, propose to install the dependencies and then install all required dependencies and the package.

Note that urpmi handle installations from various medias (ftp, http, local and nfs volumes, removable medias such as CDROMs) and is able to install dependencies from a media different from the package's media. If necessary, urpmi asks you to insert the required media.

To add a new media containing rpms run urpmi.addmedia.
To remove a media use urpmi.removemedia.
To update the packages list (for example when the ftp archive changed) use urpmi.update.
To automatically install a package corresponding to an executable you tried to launch, use autoirpm.
To install all available menu entries of all known packages, use autoirpm-icons.  

OPTIONS

--help

print an help message and exit.

--update

use only update media. This means urpmi will search and resolve dependencies only in media marked as update.

--auto

installs all required dependencies without asking.

--auto-select

automatically select all packages that have to be upgraded according to already installed packages and packages listed in various media registered.

--force

assumes yes on all questions.

--X

use X interface.

--best-output

try to use X interface or if not available the standard text interface (using rpm).

-a

if multiple packages match the substring given, take them all

-m

choose minimun closure of requires (this is the default). This is a relatively slow algorithm that tries to minimize the number of package to upgrade to only what is really necessary.

-M

choose maximal closure of requires. This is the fastest algorithms that try to upgrade all requires if they can be upgraded.

-c

if maximal closure is used, assume that a package listed mey have wrong or not up-to-date dependancies. This cause more package to be upgraded and may correct unresolved dependancies on the rpm database.

-p

allow search in provides to find package.

-q

proposes a quiet mode when calling rpm where no upgrade status are printed.

-v

proposes a verbose mode with various messages.
