Installation

Fedora:

dnf copr enable @copr/rpmeta
dnf install rpmeta

to install the also subpackages, add +SUBPACKAGE to the rpmeta.

Fedora is missing a few dependencies, so you need to install them manually:

Dependencies for model training:

• xgboost
• lightgbm

Dependencies for fancy graphs output from Optuna:

• kaleido

Other distributions:

pipx install rpmeta

to install subpackages, use rpmeta[SUBPACKAGE1, SUBPACKAGE2, ...] syntax

Or from the source:

pipx install "rpmeta[SUBCOMMANDS] @ git+https://github.com/fedora-copr/rpmeta.git"

Dependencies

In order for rpmeta (and all of its subpackages) installation from PyPI to work directly, you need to install these dependencies:

• gcc
• krb5-config
• python3-devel

Man pages

Since pip cannot distribute UNIX manpages, if you want them available, you need to install them manually via:

click-man rpmeta --target <path-to-mandir>/man1

Usage

To see available commands and options, run:

rpmeta --help

For detailed information about a specific (sub)command, run:

rpmeta <command> --help
