DESCRIPTION
     The  solv	tool demos some features of the libsolv library. It is not meant
     to replace a real package manager, for example it does not cache downloaded
     packages.

     --root ROOTDIR
	 Install packages using ROOTDIR as root of  the  filesystem.  This  also
	 means that the package database of ROOTDIR will be used.

     --clean
	 Also  get rid of no longer needed packages when erasing, like libraries
	 that have been used by the erased packages.

     --best
	 Force usage of the best package (normally the one with the highest ver-
	 sion) for install and update operations.

     --testcase
	 Write a testcase after dependency solving.

     The following options can be used to filter the packages. If the  same  op-
     tion is used multiple times, the result is ORed together.

     -i
	 Limit the packages to installed ones.

     -r REPO
	 Limit the packages to the specified repository.

     --arch ARCHITECTURE
	 Limit the packages to the specified package architecture.

     --type TYPE
	 Limit the packages to the specified package type.
