Possibility of pkgng searching for a local package's dependencies?

aalireza · Jun 16, 2013

Hello,

I'm running FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE and added PC-BSD's repository to pkg.conf. Now I want to install KDE4. The command pkg install kde4 won't work but pkg install kde will, though it attempts to install both KDE4 and KDE3.5. Any attempt for specifying KDE4 (like pkg install kde4, pkg install kde-4 or pkg install kde-4.10.3.txz etc.) won't work.

Now I've downloaded kde-4.10.3.txz and evidently all of its dependencies are in the PC-BSD's repository. However pkg add /path/to/file/kde-4.10.3.txz doesn't work because it's unable to resolve the dependencies. Is it possible for pkgng to search the dependencies of this package in the repository?

P.S. The reason for attempting to install KDE4 in this manner is that installing it through ports just takes a really long time. Also, installing it via sysinstall is not through pkgng and after installing it, pkg2ng messes everything.

P.S.S. I've just migrated from Linux a couple of days ago and now I'm reading/try to read the handbook thoroughly. Anyhow I didn't find the option of pkgng in its man page!

Always search for the package first. then install using the full name and version string shown by the search.

Thanks! Entering pkg install kde-4.10.3 works, however I'm 90% sure that tried it before attempting to compile KDE4! Anyhow, I believe that's not a proper answer to the question of this topic (though my problem has been solved); Is it possible for PKGNG to search for the dependencies of a local package in its repository?

See ports(7)() man page. You can do something like:

Code:
