.TH PKG 1 .SH NAME create, install, list, local, remove, unpkg \- trivial package management .SH SYNOPSIS .B pkg/create .I name .br .B pkg/install .I name .br .B pkg/list .br .B pkg/local .br .B pkg/remove .I name .br .B pkg/unpkg .SH DESCRIPTION .I Pkg is a simple package management system primarily written in .IR rc (1). It can be used to create, install, and remove software packages from an arbitrary package repository, indicated by the environment variable .I $pkgpath. If .I $pkgpath is not set, the system defaults to a hardcoded repository of approved packages. .TP .I Pkg/create Create builds a new package .IR name , whose source is found in directory .IR name , then packs it into a .I bzip2 (see .IR gzip (1)) compressed .IR tar (1) archive suitable for upload to a package repository. The source directory should be provided as a full path. .TP .I Pkg/install Install the package .I name from the current repository, unpacking the executables in .B /$cputype/bin/ or .B /rc/bin/ and the source in .B /sys/src/pkg/. .TP .I Pkg/list List packages available from the current repository. .TP .I Pkg/local List locally installed packages. .TP .I Pkg/remove Remove the package .I name from the local system. .TP .I Pkg/unpkg A modified .IR tar (1) used by .B pkg/install to generate checksums for every unpacked file. .SH EXAMPLES .LP Create the package .B irc7-2012.06.22: .sp 1 .EX % pkg/create /sys/src/pkg/irc7-2012.06.22 .EE .LP Install the .B mpm troff macros: .sp 1 .EX % pkg/install mpm-2011.05.14 .EE .SH FILES .TF .TP .B /sys/lib/pkg/* hash files of packages installed locally. .TP .B /sys/src/pkg/* source files of packages installed locally. .SH SOURCE .B /sys/src/cmd/pkg/create .br .B /sys/src/cmd/pkg/install .br .B /sys/src/cmd/pkg/list .br .B /sys/src/cmd/pkg/local .br .B /sys/src/cmd/pkg/remove .br .B /sys/src/cmd/pkg/unpkg.c .SH REPOSITORIES .B http://9front.org/pkg/386 .br .B https://offblast.org/pkg/386 .br .B https://offblast.org/pkg/amd64 .br .B http://plan9.bell-labs.com/sources/contrib/staal1978/pkg .SH SEE ALSO .IR gzip (1) , .IR tar (1) .SH HISTORY .I Pkg first appeared in 9front (May, 2011).
