NAME

       dnf-repomanage - 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 .
