pkg, txz and portmaster / pkg

Hi,

since the suffix was changed from txz to pkg I have issues upgrading packages. I have my own repo and create packages using pkg create -ao

and then copy it to my ftp server. When I use pkg to upgrade it already fails to retrieve packagesite.txz:

Bash: 
[helmut@BSDHelmut ~]$ sudo pkg upgrade bind916-9.16.20
Updating MyRepo repository catalogue...
MyRepo repository is up to date.
All repositories are up to date.
pkg: No packages available to upgrade matching 'bind916-9.16.20' have been found in the repositories

How can I fix that?

Thank you!

I'm doing this for my private server at home and I doubt it's worth to set up poudriere

The added benefit here is that you don't have to do all the work by hand as you're doing now. So you can just start the process and go to bed without having to babysit it.

I'd assume so based on my experience with a repo built by poudriere, the transition went smooth (unnoticed) for me.

Yep, same here. No problems whatsoever. I didn't even notice the change until later on.
 
Zirias said:
Why? It's not like this was overly complicated to do, and it automates "everything"
Click to expand...

Because I spend 1 hour or so a week with that server. It's a hobby. I tried to set up Poudriere two or three times and failed. It took me hours over hours. I don't have time to do that. All I need this for is for some flavors for my mail relay / webserver. Why do I need Poudriere to overcome an issue with pkg? Don't get me wrong but... :D

Sorry for the noise.
 
pkg_create(3)
Code: 
pkg_create_set_format() will define the compresion format to use.  By
     default "txz" except if specified otherwise in pkg.conf(5).  It returns
     false if the compression format is unknown and fallback the the default
     format.

pkg(5)
Code: 
The default location of this file is /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf.
Code: 
REPOSITORY CONFIGURATION
     To use a repository you will need at least one repository configuration
     file.

     Repository configuration files are searched for in order of the
     directories listed in the REPOS_DIR array, which defaults to /etc/pkg/
     and /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/.

     Filenames are arbitrary, but should end in ‘.conf’.  For example
     /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/myrepo.conf.
Code: 
/etc/pkg/FreeBSD.conf.  Rather than editing that file directly, create
     /usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/FreeBSD.conf

Can the suffix be changed manually?

I don't use Podriere or Synth either. A solution with those would be ok. It'd be nice to see a solution for it to use both suffixes without using those tools.
