Features

This tool is based on a rpm database (hdlist).
After loading this database, you'll be able to define a set of rpm, based on:
  • the current system configuration
  • predefined groups (from comps.xml)
  • a user selection
This set of rpm:
  • will automatically include the requiered dependencies.
  • can be exported as an ASCII or HTML file.
You can easily view which packages are:
  • requiered in order to add a specific rpm to your set.
  • to be removed in order to remove a specific package from your set.
