NAME

       dash-search - match arguments against cruft filter patterns

SYNOPSIS

       dash-search [ file ] [ ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       dash-search  Reads  files in directories /usr/lib/cruft/filters-broken_symlinks /usr/lib/cruft/filters-frbn /usr/lib/cruft/filters-miss and
       /usr/lib/cruft/filters-unex and tries to match each command argument in turn against the patterns in those  files,  using  the  shellexp(3)
       funcition.  Any	argument which matches is printed on standard output, prefixed with the name of the file which contained the pattern which
       it matched.

NAME

       cruft - Check the filesystem for cruft (missing and unexplained files)

SYNOPSIS

       cruft [-h] [-d DRIVES] [--chroots CHROOTS] [--ignore IGNORES] [-r REPORTFILE] [-m ADDRESS] [-k | -n | -N]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the cruft command.  Please see /usr/share/doc/cruft/README.gz for more information.

       cruft is a program that goes over the Debian packaging system's database, and compares the contents of that with the files actually on your
       system, and produces a summary of the differences.

OPTIONS

       The following options are recognized:

       -h     Show a summary of options and exit.

       -d DRIVES
	      Search only the listed filesystems.  DRIVES should be an absolute path, or a quoted, space-separated list of multiple absolute paths
	      (eg,  "/	/usr /home"). Multiple -d options are allowed as well. If not specified, cruft attempts to autodetect which filesystems to
	      scan.

       --chroots CHROOTS
	      Do not perform validity checks on symlinks under these directories. Useful for whatever chroots are set up in the system.

       --ignore IGNORES
	      Treat the directory trees in IGNORES as if they did not exist.  IGNORES should be an absolute path,  or  a  quoted,  space-separated
	      list of multiple absolute paths. Multiple --ignore options are allowed as well.

       -r REPORTFILE
	      Output report to REPORTFILE instead of standard output.

       -m ADDRESS
	      Mail report to ADDRESS.

       -k     Only cleanup cruft's spool directory.

       -n     Generate input files for reporting, but do not generate a report.

       -N     Only generate a report, based on old input files.

       With  none of -k -n or -N cruft performs all the above three actions, that is cleans its own spool directory, generates new input files and
       produces a report. Please note that cruft never deletes any files outside its own spool directory.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       It is possible to get some debugging information from cruft by setting the variable CRUFT_DEBUG to 1. If you need more detailed information
       on what cruft is doing, set it to 2.
