Let's say I want to upgrade a package "apache22" without upgrading everything on the system. Now I want to ensure I get enough of the dependencies into the upgrade that apache will actually work. So I try this: >> >> # pkg upgrade apache22-worker-mpm >> Installed packages to be UPGRADED: >> apache22-worker-mpm: 2.2.27_6 -> 2.2.29_2 >> >> Hmmm, that doesn't seem right. >> >> # pkg upgrade | grep openssl >> openssl: 1.0.1_15 -> 1.0.1_16 >> >> # pkg info -d apache22-worker-mpm >> apache22-worker-mpm-2.2.27_6: >> expat-2.1.0_1 >> openssl-1.0.1_15 >> perl5-5.16.3_11 >> pcre-8.34_2 >> apr-1.5.1.1.5.3_4 >> libiconv-1.14_3 >> >> So, a new version of openssl is needed and is linked to the new binary.

That would more thoroughly examine the dependencies and make sure everything that was inter-related (both as parent and child dependencies) was upgraded together. But it did not force me to upgrade Java when I just wanted to get the new version of bash installed. > > I'm not certain that it handles dependencies (it ought to), but the documented way to upgrade selectively is via "pkg install pkgname ..." For anyone following along, I found a bug report for this problem in pkgng. It isn't where I was originally looking (bugzilla) since it seems they use github for development: https://github.com/freebsd/pkg/issues/964 -- --------------------------> Aristedes Maniatis ish http://www.ish.com.au Level 1, 30 Wilson Street Newtown 2042 Australia phone +61 2 9550 5001 fax +61 2 9550 4001 GPG fingerprint CBFB 84B4 738D 4E87 5E5C 5EFA EF6A 7D2E 3E49 102A
