WNPP-ALERT(1)
NAME
wnpp-alert - check for installed packages up for adoption or orphaned
SYNOPSIS
wnpp-alert [--diff] [package ...] wnpp-alert --help|--version
DESCRIPTION
wnpp-alert downloads the lists of packages which have been orphaned
(O), are up for adoption (RFA), or the maintainer has asked for help
(RFH) from the WNPP webpages, and then outputs a list of packages
installed on the system, or matching the listed packages, which are in
those lists.
Note that WNPP, and therefore wnpp-alert's output, is source package
based.
