prt\-cache \- call prt\-get using a cache file as a data source

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
||
|
prt\-cache is a synonym for
|
||
|
.B prt\-get --cache.
|
||
|
It's perfectly the same as calling prt\-get --cache, just shorter. See
|
||
|
.B man prt-get(8)
|
||
|
for details on how to use prt-get
|
||
|
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
Even though there are almost restrictions on using prt-cache over prt-get,
|
||
|
it's mostly recommended for the following commands:
|
||
|
.B search, dsearch, list, info, depends, quickdep, diff, quickdiff
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
.B info.
|
||
|
It won't work for the
|
||
|
.B dup
|
||
|
command.
|
||
|
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
Using
|
||
|
.B prt-cache isinst
|
||
|
is not recommended (really not!)
|
||
|
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
Note that if the cache is not up to date (and there's a newer port in the
|
||
|
ports tree),
|
||
|
.B prt-cache install
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
.B prt-cache update
|
||
|
will use the version from the ports tree anyway, so there's no real
|
||
|
risk.
|
||
|
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
If you're using prt-cache, make sure to regenerate the cache by calling
|
||
|
.B prt-get cache
|
||
|
each time you make changes to the ports tree!
|
||
|
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
To create a cache, just invoke
|
||
|
.B prt-get cache.
|
||
|
Make sure you have the right permissions to do this
