✨ NAME ✨

drt-tools-nmu-list — BinNMU a list of packages 🦋

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

drt-tools nmu-list <-m|--message> [--bp] [--dw] [--extra-depends]
[-v|--verbose]... [-q|--quiet]... [-s|--suite] [-a|--architecture]
[-h|--help] [INPUT]

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

BinNMU a list of packages. periodt.

so here's the vibe: this command reads a list of source packages from stdin or from a file you hand it, and it takes all of that as input to produce/schedule commands that binNMU those very packages. she's a hard worker, no cap. 🔥

and the way she handles both version-less lists and versioned source packages formatted as source_version? yeah. ate. 👑

one thing you gotta know, and this is important so listen up: if you specify an architecture, but the package that's gonna be rebuilt produces a Multi-Arch: same binary, then a binNMU for ANY gets scheduled instead. that's just how it is, iykyk. 💅

---

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• -m, --message <MESSAGE> — the message for the binNMUs. yeah you gotta give her one, she's not gonna write it herself bestie ✍️
• --bp <BUILD_PRIORITY> — build priority. if you specify it, the binNMUs get scheduled with that build priority you gave. and lowkey important: builds with a positive priority will be built earlier. main character builds go first, obviously 🏃♀️💨
• --dw <DEP_WAIT> — dependency-wait. if you specify it, the builds will wait until the given dependency relation is satisfied. she's patient, she's not gonna rush in there 🙈
• --extra-depends <EXTRA_DEPENDS> — extra dependencies. if you specify it, the given dependency will be installed during the build. little bonus snack for the build process 🍓
• -v, --verbose — increase logging verbosity. she will tell you EVERYTHING 📢
• -q, --quiet — decrease logging verbosity. she will tell you nothing, respectfully 🤫
• -s, --suite <SUITE> [default: unstable] — the suite for the binNMUs. default is unstable and honestly? iconic behaviour ⭐
• -a, --architecture <ARCHITECTURE> — architectures for the binNMUs. okay so here's the tea: if you don't specify any architectures, the binNMUs are scheduled with ANY. otherwise, the architectures you specify here are the ones that get taken. and this option supports the special architecture ANY, plus it supports removing architectures from ANY by specifying -$arch. yes you can subtract. she contains multitudes 🧚
• -h, --help — print help (see a summary with -h) 🫶
• [INPUT] — input file with a list of packages. if you don't specify it, the list of packages will be read from the standard input. no file? no problem, she'll read from stdin 💜
