However, on 32-bit platforms default to 2 threads since we were using this before. If allowed to decide, xz seems to only want to use a single thread on 32-bit. ap/nano-7.2-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. ap/sudo-1.9.12p2-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. This update fixes a flaw in sudo's -e option (aka sudoedit) that could allow a malicious user with sudoedit privileges to edit arbitrary files.

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B installpkg
|
|
installs single or multiple *.txz (or .tbz, .tgz, .tlz) binary packages designed
|
|
for use with the Slackware Linux distribution onto your system.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--warn packagename
|
|
Generate a list of files that would be overwritten to the standard output, but do
|
|
not actually install the package. The list is formatted in a suitable fashion to
|
|
use as a list of files to backup.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--md5sum packagename
|
|
Record the package md5sum in the metadata written in /var/lib/pkgtools/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 \--terse
|
|
Install the package displaying only a single description line to stdout.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--terselength <length>
|
|
Maximum line length of --terse mode output. Default is the number of terminal columns.
|
|
.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.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--threads <number>
|
|
For xz/plzip compressed packages, set the maximum number of threads to be used for
|
|
decompression. Only has an effect if a multithreaded compressor was used, and then
|
|
only on large packages. The default for plzip and xz is the number of CPU threads available.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B \--no-overwrite
|
|
When extracting the package, do not overwrite existing files. Usually, this option
|
|
should not be used. It exists so that upgradepkg can use it for the second installation
|
|
pass. The first pass has already overwritten the previous package's files, and this will
|
|
catch the few corner cases without generating unnecessary writes.
|
|
.SH EXAMPLES
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B Install a font package for X:
|
|
.P
|
|
installpkg font-bh-ttf-1.0.3-noarch-1.txz
|
|
.P
|
|
Note that if a package is already installed, upgradepkg(8) should be used instead.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B Create a backup of the files that would be overwritten if the package is installed:
|
|
.P
|
|
.nf
|
|
tar czvf /tmp/backup.tar.gz \\
|
|
$(installpkg --warn font-bh-ttf-1.0.3-noarch-1.txz)
