RC-ALERT(1)                          General Commands Manual                          RC-ALERT(1)

NAME
       rc-alert - check for installed packages with release-critical bugs

SYNOPSIS
       rc-alert [inclusion options] [--debtags [tag[,tag ...]]] [--popcon] [package ...]
       rc-alert --help|--version

DESCRIPTION
       rc-alert  downloads  the  list  of release-critical bugs from the Debian BTS webpages, and
       then outputs a list of packages installed on the system, or  given  on  the  command-line,
       which are in that list.

       If  the  directory  $XDG_CACHE_HOME/devscripts/rc-alert  exists  or  the --cache option is
       given, then the (sizable) downloaded list will be cached,  and  will  only  be  downloaded
       again on a second invocation if it has changed.

OPTIONS
       --cache
              Force the creation of the $XDG_CACHE_HOME/devscripts/rc-alert cache directory.

       --help, -h
              Show a summary of options.

       --version, -v
              Show version and copyright information.

       It  is  also  possible to filter the list of bugs reported based on the tags and distribu-
       tions associated with the package. The filtering options are:

       --include-tags, -f
              A list of tags which the bug must have, in the format used for output.   For  exam-
              ple, to include bugs tagged security or help wanted, use "SH".

       --include-tag-op, -t
              If set to and, a bug must have all of the tags specified by --include-tags.

       --exclude-tags
              A list of tags which the bug must not have, in the same format as --include-tags.

       --exclude-tag-op
              If  set  to  and, a bug must have none of the tags specified by --exclude-tags.  By
              default, the bug will be excluded if any tag matches.

       --include-dists, -d
              A list of distributions which the bug must apply to, in the format used for output.
              For example, to include bugs affecting testing or unstable, use "TU".

       --include-dist-op, -o
              If  set  to and, a bug must apply to all of the specified distributions in order to
              be included.

       --exclude-dists
              A list of distributions to which the bug must not apply,  in  the  same  format  as
              --include-dists.

       --exclude-dist-op
              If  set  to and, a bug must apply to all of the specified distributions in order to
              be excluded.  By default the bug will be excluded if  it  applies  to  any  of  the
              listed distributions.

       It  is also possible to only list bugs which have specific debtags set. Note that you need
       to have debtags installed and also that it's not mandatory for maintainers to  set  proper
       debtags. The produced list will thus probably be incomplete.

       --debtags
              Match packages based on the listed tags. Each package is matched only if it has all
              the listed tags; in the case of multiple tags within the same facet, a  package  is
              matched if it has any of the listed tags within the facet.

       --debtags-database
              Use  a  non-standard  debtags  database.  The default is /var/lib/debtags/packages-
              tags.

       Popularity-contest collects data about installation and usage of Debian packages. You  can
       additionally sort the bugs by the popcon rank of the related packages.

       --popcon
              Sort bugs by the popcon rank of the package the bug belongs to.

       --pc-vote
              By  default,  packages  are  sorted  according to the number of people who have the
              package installed. This option enables sorting by the number  of  people  regularly
              using  the  package instead. This option has no effect in combination with --pc-lo-
              cal.

       --pc-local
              Instead of requesting remote data the information from the last popcon run is  used
              (/var/log/popularity-contest).

EXAMPLES
       --include-dists OS
              The bug must apply to at least one of oldstable or stable

       --include-dists TU --include-dist-op and
              The bug must apply to both testing and unstable

       --include-dists O --include-tags S --exclude-tags +
              The bug must apply to oldstable and be tagged security but not patch

       --exclude-dists SOT --include-tags R
              The  bug  must apply to only unstable or experimental (or both) and be tagged unre-
              producible

       --debtags implemented-in::perl,role::plugin,implemented-in::python
              The bug must apply to packages matching the specified debtags, i.e. the match  will
              only  include packages that have the 'role::plugin' tag and that have either of the
              tags 'implemented-in::perl' or 'implemented-in::python'.

       --popcon --pc-local
              Read /var/log/popularity-contest and sort bugs  by  your  personal  popcon  ranking
              (which is basically the atime of your packages' binaries).

BUGS
       It is not possible to say "does not apply only to unstable"
