NAME

6       pacman-conf - query pacman's configuration file
7

SYNOPSIS

9       pacman-conf [options] [<directive> ...]
10
11       pacman-conf (--repo-list|--help|--version)
12

DESCRIPTION

14       pacman-conf is a utility for parsing the pacman configuration file and
15       returning script-friendly output. It is designed to properly handle
16       non-trivial configuration features such as variable interpolation and
17       the use of the Include directive, and guarantees that it will return
18       the same configuration values which pacman itself would use.
19
20       pacman-conf will output the fully-resolved contents of the
21       configuration file by default, or, if provided with the name of a
22       configuration directive, output the contents of the given directive
23       alone.
24

33           Query options for a specific repository.
34
