This directory contains revdep, a package management tool that checks for missing libraries of installed packages.
This distribution is a fork of CRUX' revdep utility (which is part of CRUX' prt-utils distribution) as of commit 41dfcb6 (Thu Oct 15 2020) with the following differences:
- fix GCC extensions for portability
- manual page in mdoc(7) format
- GNU-style options/help/usage
- different exit codes for ease scripting
- bash completion
- powerpc{,64} and risc-v elf support
See git log for complete/further differences.
The original sources can be downloaded from:
- C++11 compiler
- POSIX sh(1p) and "mandatory utilities"
- GNU make(1)
- pkg-config(1)
- elfutils
The shell commands make && make install should build and install this
package. The command make install_bashcomp should install bash completion
script.
See config.mk file for configuration parameters, and src/pathnames.h for
absolute filenames that revdep wants for various defaults.
