Care should be taken so that the tools that this kit installs do not conflict
|
|
|
|
|
with the FreeBSD userland tools. There are several steps:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. FreeBSD stores its ports pkg database in /var/db/pkg. It is therefore
|
|
|
|
|
recommended that you choose a different location (e.g. /usr/pkgdb) by
|
|
|
|
|
using the --pkgdbdir option to the bootstrap script.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. If you do not intend to use the FreeBSD ports tools, it's probably a
|
|
|
|
|
good idea to move them out of the way to avoid confusion, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
|
cd /usr/sbin
|
|
|
|
|
mv pkg_add pkg_add.orig
|
|
|
|
|
mv pkg_create pkg_create.orig
|
|
|
|
|
mv pkg_delete pkg_delete.orig
|
|
|
|
|
mv pkg_info pkg_info.orig
|
|
|
|

|
|
Alternatively, take care to get pkgsrc tools first in PATH.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
bootstrap-pkgsrc has been tested on FreeBSD 4.x and 5.x (i386).
|
|
|
|
|
pkgsrc works well on FreeBSD 6.2-6.4, 7.1-7.3 (i386).
