botch-clean-repository - clean errors in a repository by removing transitively uninstallable or compilable packages

=head1 SYNOPSIS

=over

=item B<botch-clean-repository> [options] I<Packages> I<Sources>

=back

=head1 DESCRIPTION

given a repository of binary packages and source packages, clean up that
repository by removing packages that can't be compiled or installed and
packages which don't have an associated binary or source package and packages
which do not match the specified architecture.

This effectively creates a self contained repository of maximal size.

=item B<--deb-drop-b-d-arch>

=item B<--allowsrcmismatch>

If a binary package is without a source package but there is a source package
of same name but different version, match this binary package to that source
package.

=item B<--progress>

print progress bars

=item B<-o, --outfile=>I<FILE>

Set the output file I<FILE>

=item B<--deb-native-arch=>I<ARCH>

Native architecture I<ARCH>

=item B<--deb-host-arch=>I<arch>

Host architecture I<arch>. Defaults to native architecture.

=item B<--deb-foreign-archs=>I<archs>

architectures.

=item B<--deb-ignore-essential>

By default, installing any binary package requires the coinstallation set of
all binary packages marked as Essential:yes to be installed as well. This
option drops this requirement.
