# pkg-nodep(1p)

List of packages that are not targets.

## NAME

pkg-nodep - List of packages that are not targets.

## SYNOPSIS

```
 usage: pkg-node [options]
 where the options are:
```

- \--nocheck-recommends

  - \--check-recommends Check Recommends as well \[OFF\]

  - \--nocheck-suggests

  - \--check-suggests Check Suggests as well \[OFF\]

  - \--installed-packages \<Package-file-for-installed-packages\>

  ## DESCRIPTION

This utility details out the list of packages installed that have no other packages that depend on them (optionally also checks Recommends and Suggestions).

```
 The default is to assume that the list of installed packages may be
 derived from the file I</var/lib/dpkg/status>, but the user may
 override this by providing a I<Packages> file listing all the
 packages that are assumed to be installed.
```

## CAVEATS

This is very inchoate, at the moment, and needs testing.

## BUGS

None Known so far.
