Hi, I've written an article on signing FreeBSD pkg repositories with a GPG key on a YubiKey. The approach uses gpg-connect-agent PKSIGN for raw RSA signatures (since gpg --sign produces OpenPGP format instead of the PKCS#1 v1.5 that pkg expects) and SSH remote forwarding (ssh -R) to keep the...

I am from China,so I edited /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf I added the fastest mirror to the config file and used "pkg update -f" to refresh it. It was fast(10mb/sec)when refreshing. But when I tried to install some packages,It would download files really slowly(30+kb/sec) WHY??? I can't...

I have recently performed a major upgrade on my FreeBSD systems from 14.3 to 15.0 using the traditional freebsd-update(8) procedure and then pkgbasified the upgraded 15.0-RELEASE to the new pkgbase system. On these upgraded systems, I have been running several thick Jails which I wanted also to...

Hello all, I have a question regarding how does exactly pkg update work. I.e. what is the logic pkg uses to check whether or not there are updates to execute? I'm asking this because twice recently I've been left with inconsistent packages after an update + upgrade combo. (see below for...

Hi! I have a system running FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE. The machine was upgraded to 15.0 using traditional freebsd-update procedure and then pkgbasified using pkgbasify and some modifications to the lua script. Now I want to upgrade a number of jails on that machine that are running 14.3-RELEASE-p6...

Hi! I updated pkg today and its configuration of proxy settings seems to have changed. pkg[55503]: pkg upgraded: 2.3.1_1 -> 2.4.2 Before I had this in my pkg.conf pkg_env: { HTTP_PROXY: "http://proxy:8888" HTTP_PROXY_AUTH: "basic:*:user:pass" } But after the update things seems to have...

IIRC i could do the same without issues before. It seems you must only use pkg add for .pkg files. # pkg install moor-2.9.2.pkg Updating Poudriere repository catalogue... Poudriere repository is up to date. All repositories are up to date. Child process pid=21113 terminated abnormally...

After I pkgbasified my 15.0-BETA5 system, I checked with freebsd-version -kru and uname -a, they both confirmed that I am running 15.0-RC2: 15.0-RC2 15.0-RC2 15.0-RC2 FreeBSD fbsd-pc 15.0-RC2 FreeBSD 15.0-RC2 releng/15.0-n280961-7bd80d8ee020 GENERIC amd64 I even checked with pkgs' versions...

We test binary pkg upgrades locally before deploying them across the network by running pkg upgrade on a central machine. If a new package version does not seem to break production, we upgrade all other systems using the pkg upgrade pkg-name-version to ensure the tested version only is upgraded...

TL;DR: This website is in alpha stage and is not stable yet. FreeBSD package dashboard, Source code. A few days ago, CachyOS released its package dashboard (Phoronix article). Although FreeBSD has FreshPorts, I never liked its UI and speed. So I built a FreeBSD package dashboard that mimics...

I keep up with a couple Linux distros, and have the impression that Flatpak + FlatHub at the base is a goal vs traditional rpm/deb/etc packaging. Does FreeBSD have anything like that going on or planned?

It seems that pkg-base will soon be the standard on FreeBSD systems, but there seems to be no documentation concerning jails. So I’ll ask a few questions. How does one create a jail using pkg-base? Do we still fetch the .txz files? How does you update and upgrade a jail? How do you convert a...

Is there maybe something I can delete under /var/db/pkg/ that might fix this? # cat /etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf # # To disable a repository, instead of modifying or removing this file, # create a /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf file, e.g.: # # mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos # echo...

My hate/hate relationship with pkg continues. Any suggestions on how to reduce the package count below from 123 to about 3 would be appreciated: [strand.184] # freebsd-version -kru 13.5-RELEASE 13.5-RELEASE 13.5-RELEASE-p1 [strand.185] # pkg --version 2.1.4 [strand.186] # pkg delete...
