.TH SLACKPKG.CONF 5 "Oct 2017" slackpkg-2.82.2 ""
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
.B slackpkg.conf
|
|
\- Configuration data for slackpkg
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The slackpkg.conf file contains information for
|
|
.B slackpkg
|
|
(8), an automated tool for managing Slackware Linux packages.
|
|
|
|
The slackpkg.conf file is a sequence of shell script variables, and each
|
|
variable controls one aspect of slackpkg. Comments begin with the #
|
|
character and end at end of the line, and comments may appear anywhere
|
|
inside the slackpkg.conf file. If some variable appears more than once
|
|
in the file, slackpkg will use the value that was defined last.
|
|
|
|
Many variables can be overridden by options passed to slackpkg on the command
|
|
line. If you need to override the value of
|
|
.B VARIABLE
|
|
, pass
|
|
.B -variable=value
|
|
on the command line just before the slackpkg action. Multiple variables may
|
|
be overridden.
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLE: slackpkg -batch=on -default_answer=y upgrade-all
|
|
|
|
For configuration options that have only two states, possible values are
|
|
either "on" or "off" unless otherwise indicated.
|
|
|
|
The different configuration options are:
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B ARCH
|
|
.br
|
|
Chooses the system architecture. Usually Slackpkg can find the correct
|
|
value using "uname -m". The valid values are:
|
|
|
|
.ds title MACHINE\t\tVALID ARCH VALUES
|
|
.ds arm ARM\t\t\tarm
|
|
.ds x86 x86 (32bits)\ti386, i486, i586 and i686
|
|
.ds x86_64 x86 (64bits)\tx86_64
|
|
.ds ppc PowerPC\t\tpowerpc
|
|
.ds s390 S/390\t\t390

The default value of
|
|
.B ARCH
|
|
depends on your architecture.
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B SLACKKEY
|
|
.br
|
|
Slackpkg checks the package signature file (.asc) against the GPG signature
|
|
of the project. Different ports of Slackware can have different signatures,
|
|
and Slackpkg tries to find the correct one based on the architecture of your
|
|
system. If the automatically-detected
|
|
.B SLACKKEY
|
|
isn't correct, you can change it using this option.
|
|
|
|
The default value of
|
|
.B SLACKKEY
|
|
depends on your Slackware port.
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B TEMP
|
|
.br
|
|
Defines the location to which slackpkg will download the packages before
|
|
installing/upgrading them.
|
|
|
|
The default value of
|
|
.B TEMP
|
|
is /var/cache/packages.
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B WORKDIR
|
|
.br
|
|
Defines the directory for package lists, file lists, and other information
|
|
used by slackpkg as it works. Do not change the value of this variable
|
|
unless you know what you are doing.
|
|
|
|
The default value of
|
|
.B WORKDIR
|
|
is /var/lib/slackpkg.
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B WGETFLAGS
|
|
.br
|
|
Selects special options for wget. If you need to use multiple options,
|
|
remember to put them between double quotes.
|
|
|
|
The default value of
|
|
.B WGETFLAGS
|
|
is "\--passive-ftp"
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B DELALL
|
|
.br
|
|
If set to "on", all downloaded files will be removed after slackpkg performs
|
|
install or upgrade (this does NOT have any impact when slackpkg is run with
|
|
"download"). If set to "off", the files will be kept in the directory
|
|
defined in
|
|
.B TEMP
|
|
(as described above).
|
|
|
|
The default value of
|
|
.B DELALL
|
|
is "on".
|
|
.br
|
|
From command line, you can use -delall=value.
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B CHECKMD5
|
|
.br
|
|
Enables (on) or disables (off) the checking of MD5 checksums of all downloaded
|
|
packages before installing or upgrading them.
|
|
|
|
The default value of
|
|
.B CHECKMD5
|
|
is "on".
|
|
.br
|
|
From command line, you can use -checkmd5=value.
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B CHECKGPG
|
|
.br
|
|
Enables (on) or disables (off) the check of GPG signature for each package
|
|
before install or upgrade.
|
|
|
|
The default value of
|
|
.B CHECKGPG
|
|
is "on".
|
|
.br
|
|
From command line, you can use -checkgpg=value.
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|

|
|
|
The default value of
|
|
.B CHECKSIZE
|
|
is "off".
|
|
.br
|
|
From command line, you can use -checksize=value.
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B PKGMAIN
|
|
.br
|
|
Defines the main distribution directory. Usually, you don't need to worry
|
|
about this variable, as Slackpkg tries to find it based on your architecture.
|
|
However, if you need to change it, then include this variable in your
|
|
slackpkg.conf. This should always be the directory which contains the
|
|
Slackware package set series (A, AP, D, E, F, ...).
|
|
|
|
Default: depends on Slackware port
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B PRIORITY
|
|
.br
|
|
This array selects the priority at which directories on the mirror will have
|
|
when slackpkg looks for packages. If a package is found in more than one
|
|
place, the package in first directory gets priority, then second, then third,
|
|
then fourth and finally, the package found in last listed directory. You can
|
|
use %PKGMAIN to use the contents of PKGMAIN variable.
|
|
|
|
Default values (in order): patches %PKGMAIN extra pasture testing
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B POSTINST
|
|
.br
|
|
Enables (on) or disables (off) slackpkg's post-installation features, such
|
|
as checking for new (*.new) configuration files and new kernel images, and
|
|
prompts you for what it should do.
|
|
|
|
The default value of
|
|
.B POSTINST
|
|
is "on".
|
|
.br
|
|
From command line, you can use -postinst=value.
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B ONLY_NEW_DOTNEW
|
|
.br
|
|
When
|
|
.B POSTINST
|
|
is set to "on", slackpkg will search for all .new files inside /etc and
|
|
prompt the user for what to do with them. However, some users prefer to
|
|
see only the .new files installed in slackpkg's last execution, so if
|
|
this applies to you, set
|
|
.B ONLY_NEW_DOTNEW
|
|
to "on".
|
|
|
|
The default value of
|
|
.B ONLY_NEW_DOTNEW
|
|
is "off". Only change this if you know what are you doing...
|
|
.br
|
|
From command line, you can use -only_new_dotnew=value.
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B ONOFF
|
|
.br
|
|
The
|
|
.B ONOFF
|
|
variable sets the initial behavior of the dialog interface.
|
|
If you set this to "on" then all packages will be selected by default.
|
|
If you prefer the opposite option (all unchecked), then set this to "off".
|
|
|
|
The default value of
|
|
.B ONOFF
|
|
is "on".
|
|
.br
|
|
From command line, you can use -onoff=value.
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B DOWNLOAD_ALL
|
|
.br
|
|
If this variable is set to "on", all files will be downloaded before the
|
|
requested operation (install or upgrade) is performed. If set to "off",
|
|
then the files will be downloaded and the operation (install/upgrade) performed
|
|
one by one.
|
|
|
|
The default value of
|
|
.B DOWNLOAD_ALL
|
|
is "off".
|
|
.br
|
|
From command line, you can use -download_all=value.
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B DIALOG
|
|
.br
|
|
Enables (on) or disables (off) the dialog interface.
|
|
|
|
The default value of
|
|
.B DIALOG
|
|
is "on".
|
|
.br
|
|
From command line, you can use -dialog=value.
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B DIALOG_MAXARGS
|
|
.br
|
|
Set the max number of characters that will be send to "dialog". If this number
|
|
is reached in upgrade, slackpkg removes the information about current installed
|
|
version of each package. If even without this information the number is reached
|
|
again, slackpkg returns an error to the user.
|
|
|
|
If
|
|
.B DIALOG_MAXARGS
|
|
is unset, 19500 is the default value.
|
|
.br
|
|
From command line, you can use -dialog_maxargs=value.
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B BATCH
|
|
.br
|
|
Enables (on) or disables (off) the non-interactive mode. When run in batch
|
|
mode, slackpkg will not prompt the user for anything; instead, all questions
|
|
will get
|
|
.B DEFAULT_ANSWER
|
|
(see below).
|
|
.br
|
|
If you perform an upgrade using this mode, you will need to run
|
|
"slackpkg new-config" later to find and merge .new files.
|
|
|
|
The default value of
|
|
.B BATCH
|
|
is "off".
|
|
.br
|
|
From command line, you can use -batch=value.
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B DEFAULT_ANSWER
|
|
.br
|
|
This is the default answer to questions when slackpkg prompts the user for
|
|
some information. This is used only in non-interactive mode (when
|
|
.B BATCH
|
|
is "yes" or the user turns batch mode on via the command line); otherwise,
|
|
this variable has no effect.
|
|
.br
|
|
Valid values are "y" or "n".
|
|
|
|
The default value of
|
|
.B DEFAULT_ANSWER
|
|
is "n".
|
|
.br
|
|
From command line, you can use -default_answer=value.
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B USE_INCLUDES
|
|
.br
|
|
Slackpkg templates can include other templates. This reduces the package
|
|
duplication in many templates, but it can be a problem if you want to remove
|
|
only a specific template. You can disable the #include parsing by setting
|
|
this option to "off".
|
|
|
|
The default value of
|
|
.B USE_INCLUDES
|
|
is "on".
|
|
.br
|
|
From command line, you can use -use_includes=value.
|
|
|
|
.TP 5
|
|
.B SPINNING
|
|
.br
|
|
When Slackpkg is doing an activity that takes some time, it gives visual
|
|
feedback with a spinning bar. If you don't like the spinning bar, it can be
|
|
disabled by setting this option to "off".
|
|
|
|
The default value of
|
|
.B SPINNING
|
|
is "on".
|
|
.br
|
|
From command line, you can use -spinning=value.
