later at pkg_delete time to verify that you're deleting what you added.
This, of course, does NOT cover the case where a file you still need
hasn't changed! That's a tougher problem to solve, and this provides
only the minimal amount of safety belt. MD5 checksums are stored in comment
fields, so packages produced with these tools are backwards compatible with
the older ones.
man pages up to mdoc guidelines and fix some minor formatting glitches.
Also fixed a number of man pages to not abuse the .Xr macro to
display functions and path names and a lot of other junk.
Also allow URL specification for a package. This works for things the
package may depend on, too.
Allow PKG_PATH to be used anywhere a package is being searched for.
1. Make paths work correctly.
2. Make pkg_add generally more robust in the face of failure.
3. Make the depend messages come out on stderr or stdout, but not both
interspersed! :-)
2. Fix a long-standing bug in pkg_add where the failure of one package in
a multipackage installation (pkg_add *.tgz) would blow you right out of
the water. Ick.
out by Bruce.
2. Add a "feature" to pkg_create (OK, OK, it's a miserable hack!) to get
it to dump its internal packing list out so that the `fake-pkg' rule in
bsd.port.mk can generate a more meaningful packing list.
1. pkg_create now has a -P argument for specifying dependencies on the
command line.
2. pkg_add will honor dependencies and chain-load them automatically if
it finds the required package(s) in the same directory as the package
that is being loaded. For best results, install packages from a directory
containing all the packages you'll possibly need
(like /usr/ports/packages/all).
2 remaining flaws:
1. pkg_add looks in one place (where you were when you loaded the primary
pkg) for depended packages. If you can come up with a search path scheme
that's not a total hack - be my guest!
2. Recursive dependency expansion can result in the name of a dep being
listed more than once. This doesn't bother pkg_add since it checks
for package existance with pkg_info and will skip already-loaded packages.
I don't know how/if pkg_delete handles this yet, however. I need to look
into it.
in the packing list, or the argument to -p if it is specified, before
the requirements/installation/deinstallation scripts are called. This
enables the scripts to be written to work on the final installation
destination, even if the user uses -p to override the package's default.
