NAME         top

       yum-debug-restore - replay Yum transactions captured in a debug-
       dump file

SYNOPSIS         top

       yum-debug-restore

DESCRIPTION         top

       yum-debug-restore is a program which takes a gzipped file created
       by yum-debug-dump and acts on the information about installed
       packages contained within.

GENERAL OPTIONS         top

       --output
              Output the commands that would be run to stdout.

       --shell=<file>
              Output the commands that would be run to a file.

       --install-latest
              Ask yum to install the latest version of the given
              packages, instead of the version that was installed in the
              debug-dump file.

       --ignore-arch
              Ignore the architecture of the packages, so you can
              "restore" an i386 debug-dump on an x86_64 machine.

       --filter-types=[install,remove,update,downgrade]
              Only perform the given types of commands, so you can filter
              to just upgrades and installs.

FILES         top

       As yum-debug-restore uses YUM libraries for retrieving all the
       information, it relies on YUM configuration for its default values
       like which repositories to use. Consult YUM documentation for
       details:

       /etc/yum.conf
       /etc/yum/repos.d/
       /var/cache/yum/

BUGS         top

       There are of course no bugs, but should you find any, you should
       first consult the FAQ section on http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/Faq
       and if unsuccessful in finding a resolution contact the mailing
       list: yum-devel@lists.baseurl.org.  To file a bug use
       http://bugzilla.redhat.com for Fedora/RHEL/Centos related bugs and
       http://yum.baseurl.org/report for all other bugs.
