merge current Packages and Sources files into wanna-build database

## NAME

wanna-build-merge-packages - merge current Packages and Sources files into wanna-build database

## SYNOPSIS

**wanna-build-merge-packages**\
 **wanna-build-merge-quinn** \[**--stat-only**\]

## VERSION

This man page documents the packaged version of wanna-build.  This version is maintained by the **buildd-tools** project developers on Alioth (`https://alioth.debian.org/projects/buildd-tools/`).

There is also a version maintained by Ryan Murray which is adapted to build daemon needs, with similar functionality.  This version should be equally capable of working in a buildd setup, but has a number of enhancements aimed at making it suitable for use by end-users.

## DESCRIPTION

wanna-build-merge-packages is used to download Packages and Sources files for each of the databases in the database directory and then update them with the new information.  wanna-build-merge-quinn is used to merge current quinn-diff output into the database as well as make statistics.

## OPTIONS

**--stat-only** Only show statistics (wanna-build-merge-quinn only).

## FILES
