.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility installs and updates packages in the target root directory.
|
|
The argument
|
|
.Ar PKG
|
|
is a package expression, which is explained in the
|
|
.Em PACKAGE EXPRESSION
|
|
section.
|
|
.Sh PACKAGE EXPRESSION
|
|
A package expression is a form to match a pattern; currently xbps
|
|
supports 3 ways to specify them:
|
|
.Bl -dash
|
|
.It
|
|
by package name, i.e:
|
|
.Dq Sy foo .
|
|
.It
|
|
by exact package name and version, i.e:
|
|
.Dq Sy foo-1.0_1 .
|
|
.It
|
|
by specifying a package name and version separated by any of the following version comparators:
|
|
.Bl -item -width xx -compact
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It
|
|
.Sy <
|
|
less than
|
|
.It
|
|
.Sy >
|
|
greater than
|
|
.It
|
|
.Sy <=
|
|
less or equal than
|
|
.It
|
|
.Sy >=
|
|
greater or equal than
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Example:
|
|
.Dq Sy foo>=2.0 .
|
|
.Sh OPTIONS
|
|
.Bl -tag -width -x
|
|
.It Fl A, Fl -automatic

.It Fl C, Fl -config Ar file
|
|
Specifies a full path to the XBPS configuration file.
|
|
.It Fl c, Fl -cachedir Ar dir
|
|

|
|
.It Fl d, Fl -debug
|
|
Enables extra debugging shown to stderr.
|
|
.It Fl f, Fl -force
|
|
Forcefully install target package even if another version is already installed,
|
|
overwritting regular package files and symlinks (if they have been modified) but
|
|
.Em preserving configuration files .
|
|
If
|
|
.Fl f
|
|
is specified twice,
|
|
.Em configuration files will also be overwritten .
|
|
.It Fl h, Fl -help
|
|
Show the help usage.

|
machine result with this value. Useful to install packages with a fake
|
|
architecture.
|
|
.It Sy XBPS_TARGET_ARCH
|
|
Sets the target architecture to this value. This variable differs from
|
|
.Sy XBPS_ARCH

|
in that it allows you to install packages partially, because

|
|
the native architecture).
