NAME

6       bpkg-pkg-drop - drop package
7

SYNOPSIS

9       bpkg pkg-drop|drop [options] <pkg>...
10

DESCRIPTION

12       The pkg-drop command drops one or more packages from the configuration.
13       If the packages being dropped still have dependent packages, then those
14       will  have  to  be dropped as well and you will be prompted to confirm.
15       And if the packages being dropped have dependency packages  that  would
16       otherwise  no  longer be used, then they will be dropped as well unless
17       the --keep-unused|-K option is specified.
18
19       The pkg-drop command also supports several  options  (described  below)
20       that allow you to control the amount of work that will be done.
21

PKG-DROP OPTIONS

23       --yes|-y
24              Assume  the  answer to all prompts is yes. Note that this option
25              does not apply to the dropping of dependents; use  --drop-depen‐
26              dent for that.
27
28       --no|-n
29              Assume  the  answer  to  all  prompts  is  no.  Only makes sense
30              together with --print-only|-p.
31
32       --keep-unused|-K
33              Don't drop dependency packages that were automatically built but
34              will no longer be used.
35
36       --drop-dependent|-D
37              Don't  warn  about or ask for confirmation if dropping dependent
38              packages.
39
40       --keep-dependent
41              Issue an error if attempting to drop dependent packages.
42
43       --disfigure-only
44              Disfigure all the packages but don't purge.
45
46       --print-only|-p
47              Print to stdout what would be done without actually  doing  any‐
48              thing.
49
50       --plan header
51              Print  the  plan  (even if --yes is specified) and start it with
52              the header line (unless it is empty).
53
54       --directory|-d dir
55              Assume configuration is in dir rather than in the current  work‐
56              ing directory.
