Get Current Package Status from Fedora Updates System

This program is a command-line tool for checking the status of packages on bodhi.fedoraproject.org. It allows you to search for a specific package and get information about its current status, including the update ID, package name, and status.

Current Build Status

Current PyPI Status

Current conda-forge Status

Current Release Status

Features

• Search for a specific package and get its status information.
• Option to specify a distro version to check for a specific version of the package.
• Caches the previous search results for 60 minutes (1 hour) to avoid DDoS.
• Allows you to force a new search, bypassing the cache.
• Displays the information in a user-friendly format.

Installation

There are two methods of installing gpgkstatus:

1. Using pip: You can use pip install gpkgstatus and restart your terminal. Now you can use it!
2. (Unsupported) Using executables from Github: You can download executable from Releases and use it directly. Make sure to set it as executable on Linux.

Note: If you want to run the file anywhere when using executable from Github, move the file to a directory in your system's PATH (usually /usr/local/bin)

Why Method 2 is unsupported?

You have to update executable manually!

Usage

The program can be used by running the executable file with the following command:

$ gpkgstatus -h

usage: gpkgstatus [-h] [-f] [-l LIMIT] [--moreinfo] [-n NAME] [--noconfig] [-r RELEASE] [-v] [--version]
