URPMI.UPDATE(1)		   Mageia Package Management	       URPMI.UPDATE(1)

NAME
       urpmi.update - Updates package lists for specified media

SYNOPSIS
	   urpmi.update [options] [<names>]

DESCRIPTION
       urpmi.update scans the specified urpmi media to update their package
       list.  <names> is a list of names you first told to urpmi.addmedia.

OPTIONS
       --force-key
	   Force update of GPG key.

       --ignore, --no-ignore
	   Don't update media, but mark them as ignored (that is, disables
	   them).  --no-ignore has the reverse behaviour: it marks the media
	   as enabled.

       --limit-rate rate
	   Try to limit the download speed, rate is given in bytes/sec. This
	   option is not active by default.

       --no-md5sum
	   Disable MD5SUM file checking.

       --proxy proxyhost[:port|1080]
	   Use specified HTTP proxy.

       --proxy-user user:password
	   Use specified user and password to use for proxy authentication.
	   Specifying --proxy-user=ask will cause urpmi.update to prompt for a
	   username and a password.

       --urpmi-root directory
	   Use the file system tree rooted for urpmi database and rpm install.
	   Contrary to --root, the urpmi configuration comes from the rooted
	   tree.

       --wait-lock
	   If the urpmi or rpm db is busy, wait until it is available

       --update
	   Use only update media.

       --curl
	   Use curl for downloading distant files. By default curl is used if
	   available, or wget instead.

       --wget
	   Use wget for downloading distant files. By default curl is used if
	   available, or wget instead.

       --curl-options 'options'
       --rsync-options 'options'
       --wget-options 'options'
	   Specify additional command-line options to be passed to curl, rsync
	   or wget when retrieving files. If several options are to be passed,
	   separate them with spaces and enclose them in quotes.

	   Note that the rsync options will also be used for ssh media.

       -a  Select all enabled non-static media to update them.

       -f  Force updating synthesis

       -ff Really force updating synthesis

       --probe-rpms
	   Do not use synthesis, use rpm files directly

       -q  Quiet mode.

       -v  Verbose mode.
