| .SH DESCRIPTION |
| .PP |
| semodule_deps is a developer tool for showing the dependencies |
| between policy packages. For each module it prints a list of |
| modules that must be present for a module's requirements to |
| be satisfied. It only deals with requirements, not optional |
| dependencies. |
| |
| In order for semodule_deps to give useful information the list |
| of packages passed in cannot have unsatisfied dependencies. In |
| general this means that the list of modules will usually be |
| quite long. |
| |
| By default options to the base module are excluded as almost every |
| module has this dependency. The \-b option will include these |
| dependencies. |
| |
| In addition to human readable output, semodule_deps can output the |
| dependencies in the Graphviz dot format (http://www.graphviz.org/) |
| using the \-g option. This is useful for producing a picture of the |
| dependencies. |
