MacPorts 1.9

About MacPorts
an open-source community initiative to design an easy-to-use system for compiling, installing, and upgrading either command-line, X11 or Aqua based open-source software on the Mac OS X operating system. To that end we provide the command-line driven MacPorts software package under a BSD License, and through it easy access to thousands of ports that greatly simplify the task of compiling and installing open-source software on your Mac.

NAME

       whohas - find packages in various distributions' repositories

SYNTAX

       whohas [--no-threads] [--shallow] [--strict] [-d Dist1[,Dist2[,Dist3 etc.]]] pkgname

DESCRIPTION

       whohas  is  a command line tool to query package lists from the Arch, Debian, Fedora, Gentoo, Mandriva, openSUSE, Slackware (and linuxpack-
       ages.net), Source Mage, Ubuntu, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Fink, MacPorts and Cygwin distributions.

OPTIONS

       --no-threads
	      Don't use multiple threads to query package lists (will be much slower)

       --shallow
	      Limit to one call per server. Faster, but loses some information, typically package size and release date.

       --strict
	      List only those packages that have exactly pkgname as their name.

       -d Dist1[,Dist2[,Dist3 etc.]]
	      Queries only for packages for the listed distributions.  Recognised  values  for	Dist1,	Dist2,	etc.  are  "archlinux",  "cygwin",
	      "debian", "fedora", "fink", "freebsd", "gentoo", "mandriva", "macports", "netbsd", "openbsd", "opensuse", "slackware", "sourcemage",
	      and "ubuntu".

       pkgname
	      Package name to query for

FILES

       whohas uses various files in ~/.whohas to cache package lists for some distributions.
