Usage
packup [OPTIONS]
input_file_name
[output_file_name]
Overview
packup is a solver for the package upgradability problem specified in CUDF [TZ09]. It repeatedly invokes an optimization pseudo-Boolean solver in order to solve the problem. By default minisat+ [ES06] is used for that purpose but a different solver can be used by specifying the pertaining command line option.
If input_file_name is '-', input is read from the standard input. If the output_file_name is omitted, output is produced to the standard output.
Options
-
-t -
Use trendy criterion
-
-p -
Use paranoid criterion
-
-u cs -
Use user criterion cs. A criterion is a lexicographic combination of the utility functions removed, notuptodate, unmet_recommends, new, and changed. Each of them with a polarity ("+" for a function to maximize, "-" for a function to minimize). The functions are listed in decreasing order of priority, and separated by the symbol ",". For instance, the paranoid criterion could be written as -removed,-changed. For more details see: http://www.mancoosi.org/misc-live/20101126/criteria/
-
--external-solver -
command for the external solver default 'minisat+ -ansi'
-
--multiplication-string -
string between coefficients and variables when communicating to the solver, default '*'
-
--temporary-directory DIR -
directory where temporary files are created. If this option is not given then the value of $TMPDIR is used if defined, otherwise temporary files are placed in '/tmp'.
-
--leave-temporary-files -
do not delete temporary files
