DracoPKG

DracoPKG is a humble attempt at merging pkgtools and pkgsrc through a simple wrapper. Hiding the complexity through simple commands.

Features

DracoPKG supports the following features:

Install

$ dp install foobar

Install selected package and dependencies*.

Options

$ dp options foobar

Some packages support various compile options, use this command to see available and default options. You can change the options with USE="options".

$ USE="enable_option -disable_option" dp install|replace|upgrade|options foobar

This feature requires the pkgsrc tree, please note that not all packages support this feature.

Upgrade

$ dp upgrade foobar

Upgrade selected package*. Note that if you have the pkgsrc tree installed, 'upgrade' will compile the selected package and everything that depends on this package. If you are using a stable branch, or the package version is minor. Just use 'replace' instead.

Replace

$ dp replace foobar

Replace selected package. The end result is the same as 'upgrade', but you don't need to recompile other packages. Use with caution. Feature only available with pkgsrc tree.

Remove

$ dp remove foobar

Remove selected package. Also removes dependencies.

Info

$ dp info foobar

Request package information. 'dp info' prints installed packages.

* if you don't have a pkgsrc tree installed, DracoPKG will access a mirror and download the latest package available. If you have the pkgsrc tree installed, DracoPKG will ask the tree for which package to download, if no package is found, pkgsrc will compile one for you (same goes for dependencies)**.

** using default mk.conf from pkgsrc-bootstrap and default 03-BOOTSTRAP.conf from DracoPKG. If you don't want to use precompiled packages from Draco, add BOOTSTRAP_BMAKE_DEFAULT=${BOOTSTRAP_BMAKE_INSTALL} to /etc/dp/local.conf. Also remove DEPENDS_TARGET=bin-install from /usr/local/etc/mk.conf.
