WNPP-ALERT(1)                                                 General Commands Manual                                                WNPP-ALERT(1)

NAME

       wnpp-alert - check for installed packages up for adoption or orphaned

SYNOPSIS

       wnpp-alert [--diff] [package ...]
       wnpp-alert --help|--version

DESCRIPTION

       wnpp-alert  downloads  the  lists of packages which have been orphaned (O), are up for adoption (RFA), or the maintainer has asked for help
       (RFH) from the WNPP webpages, and then outputs a list of packages installed on the system, or matching the listed packages,  which  are  in
       those lists.

       Note that WNPP, and therefore wnpp-alert's output, is source package based.

OPTIONS

       --diff, -d
              If  the ~/.devscripts_cache directory exists, compare the output of wnpp-alert to the previous output (cached in the file wnpp-diff)
              and output the differences.

       --help, -h
              Show a summary of options.

       --version, -v
              Show version and copyright information.
