DESCRIPTION
      lvu is part of the lunar source-based package management suite. It is a gen-
      eral purpose command-line tool for displaying package logs, version informa-
      tion,  checking  for  installed  packages, checksums, message digests, main-
      tainer  information,  package  URL  information,  displaying  new  packages,
      untracked  files,  sections, searching for files that are installed, finding
      when modules were created and packages in the  software  catalogue.  It  can
      even  take  and  retrieve snapshots of currently installed packages for easy
      duplication.
OPTIONS
alien
             find and display all files which are not  currently  tracked  by  the
             lunar package management system
leafs
displays installed modules that have no explicit dependencies on them
orphans
displays installed modules that are missing required dependencies
pam
display modules installed that are pam aware
cd <module>
changes current directory to the given module and execs a new shell
what <module>
view the long package description
where <module>
display the section a module belongs to
website <module>
display the URL for the specified module
sources <module>
list all source files contained in a module
urls <module>
list all URLs for a module
maintainer <module>
             display  the  email  address  of the person currently responsible for
             maintaining a specified module
version <module>
display version of module in moonbase
compile <module>
show the compiler output generated when the module was built
compiler <module>
             display the version of compiler used for creating the  ELF  files  in
             modules
links <module>
             display  the  modules  that  this  module's ELF binary files actually
             links to

held
display held modules
exiled
display exiled modules
expired
display a list of modules which will be updated by a `lunar renew`
sum <module>
             print CRC checksums for modules(s). If no module is given it defaults
             to all.
md5sum <module>
             print module MD5 message digests  (fingerprints).  If  no  module  is
             given it default to all
export
take a snapshot of all modules and configuration currently installed
import snapshot
             restore  the  snapshot  from  a  previous lvu export command (see the
             export option)
moonbase
prints the entire moonbase
html
prints the entire moonbase in a nice html format
updatelog
view summary log of previous lunar update
activity
view the main lunar activity log
search "phrase"
Searches modules long descriptions for phrase
service port|acronym
displays modules that provide the given service port|acronym
newer date
             print packages that are newer than a specified date. the date must be
             specified in the 'yyyymmdd' format, where y=year, m=month, and d=day
older date
             print packages that are older than a specified date. the date must be
             specified in the 'yyyymmdd' format, where y=year, m=month, and d=day
from <path/><file>
find out what module has <path>/file installed
installed <module>
             view all installed packages  and  corresponding  version  numbers  or
             check  to  see whether a particular package is installed and if it is
             installed display its version number
section <module>
             view a list of all sections in the software catalogue  or  display  a
             list of packages from a specific section
size <module>
             display  the  size of a given module or all your installed modules in
             KB
voyeur <module>
             start looking at what lin is compiling at the moment and outputs  it.
             A module can be optionally specified.
depends <module>
             displays  the  modules  that explicitly or recursively depend on this
             module.
      tree <module>
             displays a tree of the module's dependencies.
eert <module>
displays a tree of the module's reverse dependencies.
new <module>
             Attempt to create a module DETAILS file  from  scratch  using  cut-n-
             paste  data  from the user. Very dirty method to get a module started
             by just having 4 pieces of information handy: download url,  descrip-
             tions and name
edit <module>
             Copy  an  existing module to zlocal so it can be edited. Turn on ZLO-
             CAL_OVERRIDES to make sure your edited module gets  used  instead  of
             the default module.
unedit <module>
Discards your 'edit'ed zlocal module. Works the same as removing it.
submit <module>
             Submit  a  module  to  the  lunar  module submission list/mail alias.
             Please only submit tested changes.
$MODULE_SCRIPT <module>
             replace $MODULE_SCRIPT with any of the following DETAILS |  CONFIGURE
             |  CONFLICTS  |  PRE_BUILD  |  BUILD  |  POST_BUILD  | POST_INSTALL |
             POST_REMOVE to show module scripts for the module
