PKG-SET(8) FreeBSD System Manager's Manual PKG-SET(8)
NAME pkg set - modify information in the installed database
SYNOPSIS pkg set [-a] [-A 0|1] [-n oldname:newname] [-o oldorigin:neworigin] [-v 0|1] [-y] [-Cgix] pkg-name
pkg set [--all] [--automatic 0|1] [--change-name oldname:newname] [--change-origin oldorigin:neworigin] [--yes] [-v 0|1] [--{case-sensitive,glob,case-insensitive,regex}] pkg-name
DESCRIPTION pkg set is used to modify information concerning installed packages. pkg set should always be used with caution.
OPTIONS The following options are supported by pkg set:
-A 01, --automatic 01 Set automatic flag for the package: 0 is not automatic, 1 is automatic. This affects the operation of pkg-autoremove(8).
-a, --all Match all installed packages.
-C, --case-sensitive Make the standard or the regular expression (-x) matching against pkg-name case sensitive.
-g, --glob Match pkg-name as a globbing expression.
-i, --case-insensitive Make the standard or regular expression (-x) matching against pkg-name case insensitive. This is the default, unless modified by setting CASE_SENSITIVE_MATCH to true in pkg.conf.
-n oldname:newname, --change-name oldname:newname Change the package name of a given dependency from oldname to newname.
-o oldorigin:neworigin, --change-origin oldorigin:neworigin Change the port origin of a given dependency from oldorigin to neworigin. This corresponds to the port directory that the package originated from. Typically, this is only needed for upgrading a library or package that has MOVED or when the default version of a major port dependency changes. (DEPRECATED) Usually this will be explained in /usr/ports/UPDATING. Also see pkg-updating(8) and EXAMPLES.
-x, --regex Match pkg-name as a regular expression according to the "modern" or "extended" syntax of re_format(7).
-v 01 Set or unset the "vital" flag on the target package(s). Set to 0 to disable the "vital" flag, and 1 to enable it.
-y, --yes Assume yes rather than asking for confirmation before
EXAMPLES Change a package from automatic to non-automatic, which will prevent autoremove from removing it: % pkg set -A 0 perl-5.14
Change a package from non-automatic to automatic, which will make autoremove allow it be removed once nothing depends on it: % pkg set -A 1 perl-5.14
ENVIRONMENT The following environment variables affect the execution of pkg set. See pkg.conf(5) for further description.
CASE_SENSITIVE_MATCH
