WNPP-CHECK(1)                          General Commands Manual                         WNPP-CHECK(1)



NAME
       wnpp-check - check if a package is being packaged or if this has been requested

SYNOPSIS
       wnpp-check [--exact] package ...
       wnpp-check --help|--version

DESCRIPTION
       wnpp-check  downloads the lists of packages which are listed as being packaged (ITPed) or for
       which a package has been requested (RFPed) from the WNPP website and lists any packages  sup‐
       plied on the command line which appear in those lists.

       Note that WNPP, and therefore wnpp-check's output, is source package based.

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

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