It can be used by Dev and TUs to check if new release of their package are available. HOW TO USE IT ============= The first thing to do is to define a list of package to track by creating a file ~/.config/archversion.conf. This file look like an old fashioned INI file. EXAMPLES ======== *archversion -d* will only display version which differ with cache. *archversion -n* will only display new verions. *archversion -nd* will display new version not in cache (useful for mail report). You can find a nice example of this file in misc directory. Then you can run: *archversion check -d* to only display version which differ with cache. *archversion check -n* to only display new verions. *archversion check -nd* to display new versions not in cache. Of course you can add the last one in a cron job to get a daily report of which packages need updates. COMPARING MODES =============== *archversion* allow you to compare version against differents things, not only official Archlinux repository. You can compare upstream version against: - An Archlinux package - An AUR package - A stored value DEPENDENCIES Loading Loading
