-verify-pacman-repo-db - package repository verification utility
-
-
-Synopsis
---------
-'verify-pacman-repo-db' [options]
-
-
-Description
------------
-'verify-pacman-repo-db' looks at a pacman repo database and verifies its
-content with the actual package files. The database is expected to be in
-the same directory as the packages (or symlinks to the packages).
-
-The following properties are verified for each package in the database:
-
- - existence of the package file
- - file size
- - MD5 and SHA256 checksum (--checksum)
-
-Options
--------
-*-h, \--help*::
- Output a short help message.
-
-*\--debug*::
- Enable debug output.
-
-*-c, \--checksum*::
- Verify checksums of packages. Note that this means all packages files will
- be read from disk. Otherwise only metadata is compared which does not
- require to read package file contents.
-
-*-t, \--threads* <number>::
- Use 'number' threads to verify packages. Note that each thread may use up
- to approximately 128MiB of memory. Default: 1
-
-Notes
------
-
-This script does intentionally not use any ALPM libraries. The format is simple
-enough to be parsed and this way we might just detect more problems because the
-libalpm parsing code might also have bugs. We also stay much more portable
-which might be good for people that want to check a db, but don't actually have
-pacman installed.
