pkgctl-version-check(1)
=======================

Name
----
pkgctl-version-check - Compares local package versions against upstream

Synopsis
--------
pkgctl version check [OPTIONS] [PKGBASE...]

Description
-----------

Compares the versions of packages in the local packaging repository against
their latest upstream versions.

Upon execution, it generates a grouped list that provides detailed insights
into each package's status. For each package, it displays the current local
version alongside the latest version available upstream.

Outputs a summary of up-to-date packages, out-of-date packages, and any check
failures.

This simplifies the maintenance of PKGBUILD files, reducing the manual effort
required to track version changes from upstream sources.

Configuration
-------------

Uses linkman:nvchecker[1] and a `.nvchecker.toml` file located alongside the
PKGBUILD. Refer to the configuration section in linkman:pkgctl-version[1].

Options
-------

*-v, --verbose*::
	Display results including up-to-date versions

*-h, --help*::
	Show a help text

Exit Codes
----------

On exit, return one of the following codes:

*0*::
	Normal exit condition, all checked versions are up-to-date

*1*::
	Unknown cause of failure

*2*::
	Normal exit condition, but there are out-of-date versions

*3*::
	Failed to run some version checks
