Ceve is a command line utility used to parse package metadata information (in particular package interrelationships such as dependencies) and convert them to set of constraints that need to be satisfied by a proper package installation. . Supported input formats for package metadata are: * .deb packages * Debian package lists (i.e. as in Packages.gz) * .rpm packages * RPM package lists * EGraph (XML based format, derived from GraphML) . Supported output formats for set of constraints are: * pretty printed format for human consumption * EGraph * Dose base, suitable as input for the Pkglab tool * Oz (a programming language supporting constraint programming) * Graphviz * Tart, suitable as input for the Tart media partitioner
