But when you do a "make all install" in a ports subdirectory, it installs the pkg/* files in /var/db/pkg. And I don't have a tarball yet ! Where will pkg_info take its information if not in /var/db/pkg ? It should first look into the db directory and take the information elsewhere if the package is not installed. You can't force people to keep tarballs around when they've been installed. Or am I missing something ? -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- The daemon is FREE! -=- roberto@FreeBSD.ORG FreeBSD keltia 2.0-BUILT-19950503 #3: Wed May 3 19:53:04 MET DST 1995
