https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=291200 --- Comment #9 from Vladimir Druzenko <vvd@FreeBSD.org> --- pkg-version(8): The database of available packages and versions to compare against the installed packages may be chosen by specifying one of -P, -R or -I or by setting VERSION_SOURCE in pkg.conf(5). If not specified then the ports index file will be used if it exists (-I). Otherwise, should a ports tree exist that will be used to compare versions (-P). Failing either of those two choices, the repository catalogue will be used (-R). pkg.conf(5): VERSION_SOURCE: string Default database for comparing version numbers in pkg-version(8). Valid values are I for index, P for ports, R for remote. Default: If unset, the algorithm described in pkg-version(8) is used to determine the version source automatically. We can use "setting VERSION_SOURCE in pkg.conf(5)" instead. 1) Change default behavior in pkg-version (update man page too) to use by default "-R". 2) Or add in pkg.conf.sample option VERSION_SOURCE=R. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
