NAME

6       virt-index-validate - Validate virt-builder index file
7

SYNOPSIS

9        virt-index-validate index
10

DESCRIPTION

12       virt-builder(1) uses an index file to store metadata about templates
13       that it knows how to use.  This index file has a specific format which
14       virt-index-validate knows how to validate.
15
16       Note that virt-index-validate can validate either the signed or
17       unsigned index file (ie. either index or index.asc).  It can only
18       validate a local file, not a URL.
19

OPTIONS

21       --compat-1.24.0
22           Check for compatibility with virt-builder 1.24.0.  (Using this
23           option implies --compat-1.24.1, so you don't need to use both.)
24
25           In particular:
26
27           •   This version of virt-builder could not handle "[...]"  (square
28               brackets) in field names (eg. "checksum[sha512]=...").
29
30           •   It required detached signatures ("sig=...").
31
32       --compat-1.24.1
33           Check for compatibility with virt-builder ≥ 1.24.1.
34
35           In particular:
36
37           •   This version of virt-builder could not handle "." (period) in
38               field names or "," (comma) in subfield names.
39
40           •   It could not handle comments appearing in the file.
41
42       --help
43           Display help.
44
45       -V
46       --version
47           Display version number and exit.
48

EXIT STATUS

50       This program returns 0 if the index file validates, or non-zero if
51       there was an error.
