Hi there,
I've installed FreeBSD 4.3, and added bash and tcsh
(btw, /stand/sysinstall didn't mark tcsh as installed
though it was). These got installed to /usr/local/bin/,
but I'd rather have them in /bin/. I could just move
them, but then I won't be able to remove them. I have
had a look at /var/db/pkg/, and it looks like the
locations are hashed with MD5. Will it be enough to
edit the +<files> with the new locations _and_ new
hashes, or is the integrity checked elsewhere? As I
said, I want to be able to remove the packages with
pkg_delete(1).
Better yet -- where will the man page get installed
if I install e. g. bash with
# pkg_add -p / bash-2.05.tgz
(hope I have it right)? Because normally it goes to
/usr/local/bin and /usr/local/man/man1/, while I want
it in /bin/ and /usr/share/man/man1/. I guess I'll have
to edit the install script, right?
TIA
