Description:
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
prt-get is a utility which is meant to be used with the pkgutils and
|
|
|
|
ports from crux (http://crux.nu). It offers some simplification over
|
|
|
|
pure pkgmk, but might hide some interesting details about the install
|
|
|
|
process.

prt-get has to know where to look for ports. You can specify those in
|
|
|
|
/etc/prt-get.conf, one directory per line. Note that the order
|
|
|
|
matters, when the same port is in multiple direcories
|
|
|
|
(e.g. /usr/ports/contrib/mutt and /usr/ports/local/mutt), the one
|
|
|
|
found _first_ will be used.

|
-----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
port directories may only contain ports, or else prt-get can fail (which
|
|
|
|
means that nothing is installed, your system takes no harm). The reason
|
|
|
|
for this is because the additional checking slows down the application
|
|
|
|
too much
