-----------
The solv tool demos some features of the libsolv library. It is not
meant to replace a real package manager, for example it does not cache
downloaded packages.

*--root* 'ROOTDIR'::
Install packages using 'ROOTDIR' as root of the filesystem. This also
means that the package database of 'ROOTDIR' will be used.

*--clean*::
Also get rid of no longer needed packages when erasing, like libraries
that have been used by the erased packages.

*--best*::
Force usage of the best package (normally the one with the highest
version) for install and update operations.

*--testcase*::
Write a testcase after dependency solving.

The following options can be used to filter the packages. If the
same option is used multiple times, the result is ORed together.

*-i*::
Limit the packages to installed ones.

*-r* 'REPO'::
Limit the packages to the specified repository.

*--arch* 'ARCHITECTURE'::
Limit the packages to the specified package architecture.

*--type* 'TYPE'::
Limit the packages to the specified package type.
