PACTREE(8) Pacman Manual PACTREE(8)NAME
pactree - package dependency tree viewer
SYNOPSIS
pactree [options] package
DESCRIPTION
Pactree produces a dependency tree for a package.
By default a tree like output is generated, but with the -g option a
graphviz description is generated.
OPTIONS-a, --ascii
Use ascii characters for tree formatting. By default, pactree will
use unicode line drawing characters if it is able to detect that
the locale supports them.
-b, --dbpath
Specify an alternative database location.
-c, --color
Colorize output.
-d, --depth <num>
Limits the number of levels of dependency to show. A zero means
show the named package only, one shows the packages that are
directly required.
-g, --graph
Generate graphviz description. If this option is given, the -c and
-l options are ignored.
-h, --help
Output syntax and command line options.
-l, --linear
Prints package names at the start of each line, one per line.
-r, --reverse
Show packages that depend on the named package.
-s, --sync
Read package data from sync databases instead of local database.
-u, --unique
List dependent packages once. Implies --linear.
