digest algorithm" This reverts commit b040b323d6fac32f7f4fa77fd5cb60c7967fc53f. The change does only affect file digests.

2012-03-19Fixup couple of md5/digest references regarding verify in the manualPanu Matilainen1-3/+3
- '5' in verify stands for digest nowadays, keep the md5 reference to explain why 5 is for digest though (related to RhBug:804049) - In --dump query everything relates to files, refer to the attribute in question ie 'digest' instead of 'filedigest'
2012-01-04document -D and -E in man.Ales Kozumplik1-0/+6
2011-10-17Update man page(s) verify output description to match current behaviorPanu Matilainen1-2/+2
- Since addition of file capability verification in rpm 4.7.x, the verify output has nine characters, not eight (RhBug:746525)
2011-01-05A largish man-page updatePanu Matilainen1-138/+14
- Remove rpmquery and rpmverify manuals for now, the functionality didn't get split to separate binaries afterall and the manpages were in a rather bad shape afterall. - Add some missing options, remove no longer existing options - Remove rpmdb, rpmkeys, rpmsign and rpmspec related switches from man rpm manual, add them to the "see also"-section instead - Adjust database file list on main rpm manual, remove it from rpmbuild man.
2010-10-22Eliminate useless --fileid query selectorPanu Matilainen1-5/+1
- Finding out which package provides a file with a given digest is just .. useless functionality. Being next to useless is one thing, but we pay a high price for this particular uselessness: the index needed for this is one of the biggest and most expensive indexes we have.
2010-09-28Eliminate %_signature from man pages tooPanu Matilainen1-4/+0
2010-06-29Add --delsign to man pagePanu Matilainen1-1/+7
2010-05-28Add header extension tag RPMTAG_FILESTATUS for file verificationPanu Matilainen1-0/+3
- Permits basic file verification with just a headerGet(), with some caveats: there's no way to control which attributes get verified, and there's no filtering of mtime differences of shared files. Those aside, rpm -q --qf "[%{filestates:vflags} %{filenames}\n] <args>" now performs the same as "rpm -V --nodeps --noscripts <args>"
2010-02-09Add macro expansion queryformat extensionPanu Matilainen1-0/+3
- unused at the moment but doesn't hurt anything either...
2010-01-25Document --conflicts in rpm(8).Ville Skyttä1-5/+8
2009-10-30Document our new format extensionsPanu Matilainen1-1/+10
2009-04-09Make it clearer that PACKAGE_FILE logic applies to all -F, -U, and -i.Ville Skyttä1-19/+15
2009-03-02Fix documentation and help for the md5 -> filedigest moveJindrich Novy1-1/+1
- add aliases for obsolete {RPM}VERIFY_MD5 flags to not to break API
2009-02-27Add md5->filedigest aliases (rhbz#487597)Jindrich Novy1-2/+2
- add %verify(nofiledigest) as %verify(nomd5) file attribute alias - reference digests as digests not checksums - make old md5 related symbols obsolete and use newer reference - update man page accordingly
2009-02-05--requires lists required capabilities, not packages (rhbz#483253)Panu Matilainen1-2/+2
- also fix a minor typo in --whatrequires description
2009-01-08Update docs wrt gpg path macro (rhbz#476201)Panu Matilainen1-2/+2
2008-10-26Beginnings of file capability (POSIX.1e draft 15) verification supportPanu Matilainen1-0/+2
- add minimal bits and pieces to check for capabilities in files on verify - for now, any capability set is a verification failure as the capability cannot have been set by rpm itself - patch from Andreas Gruenbacher, modified to use libcap instead of raw xattrs for portability
2008-09-18Document manifest behavior for install options too (rhbz#461354)Panu Matilainen1-3/+8
2008-09-18Kick out references to "Red Hat Linux" out of the manpages, duh :)Panu Matilainen1-1/+1
- RHL hasn't existed in years and rpm isn't specific to RH anyway...
2008-09-18Update man-page wrt supported query formatter typesPanu Matilainen1-1/+9
2008-06-25Update rpm manpage wrt build modesPanu Matilainen1-36/+3
- the build modes have been removed ages ago, just point to rpmbuild manual
2008-03-17Remove rollback and repackage from documentationPanu Matilainen1-19/+3
2007-10-11Clarify rpm manpage wrt rpmbuild binary vs package (rhbz#233232)Panu Matilainen1-1/+1
2007-08-10Add comment about checking --help to manuals (rhbz#164281)Panu Matilainen1-0/+5
As users + admins can tweak popt aliases to their liking, it's impossible to guarantee than man pages are in sync with what's available...
2007-08-09Clarify --initdb usage in manual (rhbz#218057)Panu Matilainen1-1/+2
2007-08-06Fix --dump usage description in the manpage.Panu Matilainen1-6/+1
