    8 .SH SYNOPSIS
    9 .PP
   10 .B prtcheck
   11 [ \-\-root ]
   12 .SH DESCRIPTION
   13 
   14 The \fIprtcheck\fP script checks the following things: existance of 
   15 Pkgfile, .footprint and .md5sum. It warns, if non-root users are found in
   16 the \.footprint and
   17 the Pkgfile is checked for the existence of the fields Description, URL, 
   18 Packager and a "Depends on" line. If something misses for a correct port,
   19 \fIprtcheck\fP exits with 1.

   21 .SH OPTIONS
   22 The following options are supported:
   23 .TP
   24 .I "\--root"
   25 This option allows you to create ports as a normal user, which helps you to
   26 find buggy Makefiles of source code packages, which try to install directly
   27 in /usr/local or ignore DESTDIR variables. The result is a .footprint with
   28 uid/gid entries with the uid/gid of the user, who called \fIpkgmk\fP. 
   29 \fIprtcheck\fP warns, if it finds such uid/gid entries, the --root option
   30 replaces them with root/root.
