SYNOPSIS

gpt-query [-name=Name -flavor=Flavor -pkgtype=Type --help -file=name -man -deps=run|sdk] [pkgname-flavor-pkgtype+]

DESCRIPTION

gpt-query searches installed packages for matches to the query. Name is the name of the package. Flavor is the information about linking and compile options used on package. Type is the type of the package. ? will alow the use to access system help.

The user may enter a value for any of the options. These options can be used in combination or not at all. The script will take the options being used and try to find all matching items.

An alternate form is to use the pkgname-flavor-pkgtype tuples. Multiple of instances of these tuples can be used in a query.

 Returns all of the packages matching NAME.

-flavor=FLAVOR

Returns all of the packages matching FLAVOR.

-pkgtype=TYPE

Returns all of the packages matching TYPE.

-file=FILE

Returns the package owning the FILE. FILE needs to be either an absolute path or referenced to $GLOBUS_LOCATION.

-deps=run|sdk

-man

-verify-bundle=BUNDLE

Takes a bundle defintion and checks to see if it matches the installation.

-bundle-packages=BUNDLE

List the packages that belong to the desired bundle.

        globus_core_setup-noflavor-pgm ver: 2.0 cmp id: 2.0.0
        globus_ssl_utils-noflavor-data ver: 2.1 cmp id: 2.1.0
        kca_setup-noflavor-pgm ver: 3.0.2p1 cmp id: 1.0.0

For each package name, flavor, package type, version, and the compatibility identifier is return. The compatibility identifier is what is used to resolve dependencies.
