Hi,
In the past I've been able to use pkg_replace on machine that didn't
have the ports collection installed.
With the current version of pkg_replace this doesn't seem to be
possible anymore, since pkg(ng) detection breaks in those cases:
: ${use_pkgng="`/usr/bin/make -f/usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk -V
WITH_PKGNG`"}
if [ "x${use_pkgng}" = "xdevel" ]; then
use_pkgng="yes"
fi
bsd.port.mk requires /usr/ports/Mk/...
One of the main motivations to use pkg_replace for me is to not having
a ports tree on the machines I use it on.
I would suggest to replace this with a detection mechanism similar to
what ports does:
If sysctl -n kern.osreldate >= 1000017
use_pkgng=yes, unless WITHOUT_PKGNG is defined
else if defined(WITH_PKGNG) (any value, not just ==yes)
use_pkgng=yes
else
use_pkgng=no
Determining WITH_PKGNG/WITHOUT_PKGNG should be done using make -V VAR
(without specifying a Makefile, so /etc/make.conf is read).
- Michael
