💖 BOTCH-PROFILE-BUILD-FVS 💖

okay bestie, so this is a page from the botch tools manual set — specifically botch-profile-build-fvs(1). it's giving ✨dependency-graph-surgery✨ and honestly? it's kinda iconic.

🌸 NAME 🌸

botch-profile-build-fvs — remove droppable dependencies from graph

like. it yeets the dependencies you literally don't need. periodt.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

botch-profile-build-fvs [options] graph.xml fvs.list

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea: this tool removes droppable dependencies from a given set of source packages. that's the whole vibe.

and the list of source packages? it's given on standard input if you don't supply it as the last positional argument. so either you hand it over, or it just reads from stdin like a main character who waits to be approached. 💅

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -h, --help — show help. bestie needs a lil guidance sometimes 🫶
  • --remove-weak=FILE — a filename containing a list of weak build dependencies 🔥
  • --remove-reduced=FILE — one or more filename containing a list of droppable build dependencies, separated by commas. yes, plural filenames, one flag, commas between them. multitasking queen 👑
  • --verbose — be verbose. be loud. be unapologetic about it 📣

💀 BUGS 💀
