pkg_online_find was fully reimplemented and now is trivial wrapper over
pkg_digger. pkg_summary>=0.49.0 is needed at run time.
Config file ~/.pkg_online_client.conf
has been renamed to ~/.pkg_online_client
Now pkg_online_client and pkg_online_find conform to POSIX Utility
Syntax Guideline, for example, you can runn the following
pkg_online_find -r3 runawk.
pkg_online_client/pkg_online_find and server-size tools now use
.conf files (pkg_online_client.conf and pkg_online_server.conf)
placed under sysconfdir directory or user's home.
Build system has changed to mk-configure and the project structure
has been reorganized.
New option -n were added to pkg_online_client.
FIX: dictd's special entries (00-database-xxx) are ignored by
pkg_online_client.
AI logic has moved from pkg_online_client to pkg_online_find.
DESCRPTION:xxx entries were removed from PKG_ONLINE_FALLBACK_RULES.
Several "dict" clients run in parallel. This gives ~25% speed-up.
pkg_online - client/server search in pkgsrc packages.
Every separate field (PKGPATH, PKGNAME, COMMENT etc.) may be queried
separately and multiple fields may be queried too. Lots of search
strategies are available. A set of fields and search strategies may
very depending on your server configuration. For example, you can
search in binary (pkg_summary.gz generated by pkg_info -X) or source
(pkg_src_summary.gz generated by wip/pkg_src_summary) repositories.
Communication protocol is a well known dictionary protocol described
in RFC-2229. Server runs dictd (wip/dict-server)
This package provides tools for builidng PKG_ONLINE databases
