NAME

       mkepmlist - make an epm list file from a directory.

SYNOPSIS

       mkepmlist [ -g group ] [ -u user ] [ --prefix directory ] directory [ ...  directory ]

DESCRIPTION

       mkepmlist recursively generates file list entries for files, links, and directories. The file list is send to the standard output.

       The -g option overrides the group ownership of the files in the specified directories with the specified group name.

       The -u option overrides the user ownership of the files in the specified directories with the specified user name.

       The  --prefix  option adds the specified directory to the destination path. For example, if you installed files to "/opt/foo" and wanted to
       build a distribution that installed the files in "/usr/local", the following command would generate  a  file  list  that  is  installed  in
       "/usr/local":
            mkepmlist --prefix=/usr/local /opt/foo >foo.list
