NAME

       semodule_deps - show the dependencies between SELinux policy packages.

SYNOPSIS

       semodule_deps [-v -g -b] basemodpkg modpkg1 [modpkg2 ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       semodule_deps  is  a developer tool for showing the dependencies between policy packages. For each module
       it prints a list of modules that must be present for a module's requirements to  be  satisfied.  It  only
       deals with requirements, not optional dependencies.

       In  order  for  semodule_deps  to  give  useful  information  the  list of packages passed in cannot have
       unsatisfied dependencies. In general this means that the list of modules will usually be quite long.

       By default options to the base module are excluded as almost every module has  this  dependency.  The  -b
       option will include these dependencies.

       In  addition  to  human  readable  output,  semodule_deps can output the dependencies in the Graphviz dot
       format (http://www.graphviz.org/) using the -g option. This is useful for  producing  a  picture  of  the
       dependencies.

OPTIONS

       -v     verbose mode

       -g     output dependency information in Graphviz dot format

       -b     include dependencies to the base module - by default these are excluded
