.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B installpkg
|
|
installs single or multiple *.tgz (or .tbz, .tlz, .txz) binary packages designed
|
|
for use with the Slackware Linux distribution onto your system.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--warn packagename
|
|
Generate a report to the standard output about which files and directories
|
|
would be removed or overwritten if you install the package, but do not
|
|
actually install it.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--md5sum packagename
|
|
Record the package md5sum in the metadata written in /var/log/packages.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--root /otherroot
|
|
Install using a location other than / (the default) as the root of the
|
|
filesystem to install on. In the example given, use /otherroot instead. Setting
|
|
the ROOT environment variable does the same thing.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--infobox
|
|
Use /bin/dialog to display an informational dialog as the package is installed.
|
|
Primarily used when installpkg is called from other scripts.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--menu
|
|
Use /bin/dialog to display a menu asking the user if they would like to install the
|
|
package(s) or not. Generally used when installpkg is called from other scripts.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--ask
|
|
Used with -menu mode. When selected, always ask if a package should be
|
|
installed regardless of what the package's priority is.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--priority ADD|REC|OPT|SKP
|
|
When installing with the \-menu option, package priority levels (found in the file
|
|
"tagfile" in the package directory) are used to automatically install (ADD) or
|
|
skip (SKP) a package, or to suggest recommended (REC) or optional (OPT) to the user
|
|
if a menu is displayed. If a priority is set on the command line, it will override
|
|
the values set in the tagfile for the entire package list.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--tagfile /somedir/tagfile
|
|
Specify a different file to use for package priorities (in this example, /somedir/tagfile
|
|
will be used). The default is "tagfile" in the package's directory.
