DESCRIPTION

      lvu is part of the lunar source-based package management suite. It is a
      general purpose command-line tool for displaying package logs,  version
      information,   checking  for  installed  packages,  checksums,  message
      digests, maintainer information, package  URL  information,  displaying
      new  packages,  untracked files, sections, searching for files that are
      installed, finding when modules were created and packages in the  soft-
      ware  catalogue.  It  can even take and retrieve snapshots of currently
      installed packages for easy duplication.

OPTIONS

             start looking at what lin is compiling at the moment and outputs
             it. A module can be optionally specified.
      depends <module>
             displays  the  modules  that explicitly or recursively depend on
             this module.
      tree <module>
             displays a tree of the module's dependencies.
      eert <module>
             displays a tree of the module's reverse dependencies.
      edit <module>
             Copy an existing module to zlocal so it can be edited.  Turn  on
             ZLOCAL_OVERRIDES  to  make  sure  your  edited  module gets used
             instead of the default module.
      unedit <module>
             Discards your 'edit'ed zlocal module. Works the same as removing
             it.
      submit <module>
             Submit  a module to the lunar module submission list/mail alias.
             Please only submit tested changes.
