7: B<CHECKRPMS> - automated status report about RPMs on a system
8:
9: =head1 SYNOPSIS
10:
11: ./CHECKRPMS
12:
13: or
14:
15: perl CHECKRPMS
16:
17: =head1 DESCRIPTION
18:
19: This file automates the usage of Martin Siegert's "check-rpms"
20: script. It runs through a list of possible mirror sites
21: until it finds one with a reasonably good FTP connection.
22:
23: =head2 Future directions
24:
25: Eventually, this script may have a simple argument format
26: that allows the user to VIEW, DOWNLOAD, or AUTOUPDATE their
27: computer. Or, this script may evolve into an interactive
28: series of steps: For example, there may be questions like this:
29:
30: =over 4
31:
32: =item *
33:
34: Do you want to (D)ownload or (A)utoupdate the RPMs
35: in the list above?
36:
37: =item *
38:
39: Specify a download location for the RPMs
40: (default=/tmp/update_my_rpms/)?
41:
42: =back
43:
44: Note that there are no current plans to automate a software upgrade of the
45: kernel. This step should be performed by a qualified system administrator.
