perl v5.40.0 2025-02-13 BOTCH-BUILD-FIXPOINT(1)
Description
Given a list of source packages Sources, return the list of binary packages that can be built without
having to break a dependency cycle. The algorithm repeatedly attempts to satisfy build dependencies of
all source packages using the available binary packages from AvailablePackages and adds the binary
packages of those source packages that satisfy their build dependencies to the set of available binary
packages.
Example
Calculate the source packages that can be built in a given state:
botch-build-fixpoint --deb-native-arch=amd64 --available packages-arch-all --output-order=order.lst packages sources
Name
botch-build-fixpoint - find build order until dependency cycles occur
Options
--version
show program's version and exit
-h,--help
show this help message and exit
-v,--verbose
print additional information
--quiet
do no print any messages
-A,--available=AvailablePackages
List of available packages (arch:all, crossed...) in control file format (setting this argument is
required). Packages in this list have to be part of Packages.
--deb-drop-b-d-indep
Drop Build-Depends-Indep dependencies
--deb-drop-b-d-arch
Drop Build-Depends-Arch dependencies
--allowsrcmismatch
If a binary package is without a source package but there is a source package of same name but
different version, match this binary package to that source package.
--output-order=FILE
instead of stderr, write the calculated build order to this file.
--fg=PKGS
Additional Packages lists that are checked and used for resolving dependencies (can be repeated)
--bg=PKGS
Additional Packages lists that are NOT checked but used for resolving dependencies (can be repeated)
-o,--outfile=FILE
Set the output file FILE--deb-native-arch=ARCH
Native architecture ARCH--deb-host-arch=arch
Host architecture arch. Defaults to native architecture.
--deb-foreign-archs=archs
Comma-separated foreign architectures in addition to native and host architectures.
