NAME
       dnf-repomanage - DNF repomanage Plugin
       Manage a repository or a simple directory of rpm packages.
SYNOPSIS
       dnf repomanage [<optional-options>] [<options>] <path>
DESCRIPTION
       repomanage prints newest or older packages in a repository specified by
       <path> for easy piping to xargs or similar  programs.  In  case  <path>
       doesn't contain a valid repodata, it is searched for rpm packages which
       are then used instead.  If the repodata are  present,  repomanage  uses
       them  as  the  source  of  truth, it doesn't verify that they match the
       present rpm packages. In fact, repomanage can run with just  the  repo-
       data, no rpm packages are needed.
       In order to work correctly with modular packages, <path> has to contain
       repodata with modular metadata. If modular content is present, repoman-
       age prints packages from newest or older stream versions in addition to
       newest or older non-modular packages.
   Options
       All general DNF  options  are  accepted,  see  Options  in  dnf(8)  for
       details.
       The  following  options  set what packages are displayed. These options
       are mutually exclusive, i.e. only one can be specified. If no option is
       specified, the newest packages are shown.
       --old  Show older packages (for a package or a stream show all versions
              except the newest one).
       --oldonly
              Show older packages (same as --old, but exclude the newest pack-
              ages even when it's included in the older stream versions).
       --new  Show newest packages.
       The following options control how packages are displayed in the output:
       -s, --space
              Print resulting set separated by space instead of newline.
       -k <keep-number>, --keep <keep-number>
              Limit the resulting set to newest <keep-number> packages.
EXAMPLES
       Display newest packages in current repository (directory):
          dnf repomanage --new .
       Display 2 newest versions of each package in "home" directory:
          dnf repomanage --new --keep 2 ~/
       Display  oldest  packages  separated  by  space  in  current repository
       (directory):
          dnf repomanage --old --space .
