NAME

xbps-reconfigure — XBPS utility to configure installed packages

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

The xbps-reconfigure utility configures or reconfigures packages in target root directory. Configuration involves two steps:

* Executes the post ACTION on its INSTALL script (which can be shown by running `xbps-query --property=install-script pkg' ).

* Changes package state to XBPS_PKG_STATE_INSTALLED if previous step ran successfully.

Only packages that weren't configured previously will be processed, unless the -f option is specified.

OPTIONS

-a, --all

Configures all packages.

-C, --config dir

Specifies a path to the XBPS configuration directory. If the first character is not '/' then it's a relative path of rootdir.

-d, --debug

Enables extra debugging shown to stderr.

-f, --force

Forcefully reconfigure package even if it was configured previously.

-h, --help

Show the help message.

-i, --ignore PKG

Ignore PKG when configuring all packages with -a, --all. The PKG argument can be a package name or a package name with version. This option can be specified multiple times.

-r, --rootdir dir

Specifies a path for the target root directory.

-x, --deps

Configure PKGNAME... and its direct dependencies.

--fulldeptree

Configure the full dependency tree of PKGNAME... when used with -x, --deps.

-v, --verbose

Enables verbose messages.

-V, --version

Show the version information.

ENVIRONMENT

XBPS_ARCH

Overrides uname(2) machine result with this value. Useful to install packages with a fake architecture

XBPS_TARGET_ARCH

Sets the target architecture to this value. This variable differs from XBPS_ARCH in that it allows you to install packages partially, because configuration phase is skipped (the target binaries might not be compatible with the native architecture).

XBPS_SYSLOG

Overrides the xbps.d(5) syslog=true|false configuration option.

FILES

/etc/xbps.d

Default configuration directory.

/usr/share/xbps.d

/var/db/xbps/.<pkgname>.plist

Package files metadata.

/var/db/xbps/pkgdb-0.38.plist
