===== dCore sce-pkgcheck Command =====

The ''sce-pkgcheck'' command is useful to confirm packages and repository of origin (ie. main, security, extra, dCore prebuilt, metapackage). It is also useful to check packages imported via list files. Run [[http://wiki.tinycorelinux.net/dcore:sce-import_command|''sce-import --help'']] and review ''sce-import -l LISTFILE'' for more information.

As ''sce-pkgcheck'' is not included in a base dCore install, it must be imported separately from the dCore repository, to use:
    sce-import -o sce-pkgcheck
    sce-load sce-pkgcheck
    sce-pkgcheck PKG

Note dependency list files from the dCore server contain dependencies that may not exist in the particular dCore variant being run. For example, if a package in dCore-wheezy needs libgcc-4.7 and dCore-trusty needs libgcc-4.8, then both are present in the dCore server's dependency list. This same logic is used when processing the list (*.lst) files.

Usage options from the 'sce-pkgcheck --help' command:

  sce-pkgcheck - Check individual PKG (package) to confirm name and repository of
                 origin, including PKGs not currently installed. Can also check
                 PKGs from SCE list file(s) located in /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/sce/
                 (eg. typo in list file). Results echoed to /tmp/.pkgcheck.
                 May use option combinations (eg. sce-pkgcheck -paq).
                 Run 'sce-import --help' regarding list files.
  
  Usage:
  
  sce-pkgcheck PKG         Update DEBINX, confirm the PKG and repository.
  sce-pkgcheck -p PKG      Preserve DEBINX, confirm the PKG and repository.
  sce-pkgcheck -q PKG      Quiet mode, update DEBINX, terminal output only if PKG
                           not available, full output echoed to /tmp/.pkgcheck.
  sce-pkgcheck -l SCE.lst  Check PKGs in specific SCE directory list file.
  sce-pkgcheck -a          Check PKGs in all SCE directory list files.
