NAME

       repomanage - redirecting to DNF repomanage Plugin

       Manage a repository or a simple directory of rpm packages.

SYNOPSIS

       dnf repomanage [<optional-options>] [<options>] <path>

DESCRIPTION

       repomanage  prints  newest or older packages in a repository specified by <path> for easy piping to xargs
       or similar programs. In case <path> doesn’t contain a valid repodata, it is  searched  for  rpm  packages
       which  are  then used instead.  If the repodata are present, repomanage uses them as the source of truth,
       it doesn’t verify that they match the present rpm packages. In fact, repomanage can  run  with  just  the
       repodata, no rpm packages are needed.

       In  order  to work correctly with modular packages, <path> has to contain repodata with modular metadata.
       If modular content is present, repomanage prints  packages  from  newest  or  older  stream  versions  in
       addition to newest or older non-modular packages.

   Options
       All general DNF options are accepted, see Options in dnf(8) for details.

       The  following  options  set what packages are displayed. These options are mutually exclusive, i.e. only
       one can be specified. If no option is specified, the newest packages are shown.

       --old  Show older packages (for a package or a stream show all versions except the newest one).

       --oldonly
              Show older packages (same as –old, but exclude the newest packages even when it’s included in  the
              older stream versions).

       --new  Show newest packages.

       The following options control how packages are displayed in the output:

       -s, --space
              Print resulting set separated by space instead of newline.

       -k <keep-number>, --keep <keep-number>
              Limit the resulting set to newest <keep-number> packages.

EXAMPLES

       Display newest packages in current repository (directory):

          dnf repomanage --new .

       Display 2 newest versions of each package in “home” directory:

          dnf repomanage --new --keep 2 ~/

       Display oldest packages separated by space in current repository (directory):

          dnf repomanage --old --space .
