Hello, I have a question concerning the --repository switch of the pkg rquery comm= and. The man page states: -r reponame, --repository reponame Query for data about packages from only the named reposito= ry, irrespective of the configured ``active'' status from repo.conf. By default all repository catalogues marked ``active'' are queried. I assumed that the "active" status was controlled by the "enabled" switch i= n the config file for my (custom) repository. But that seems not to be the = case. So my question is, is there a possibility to act on a custom reposito= ry that is not "enabled" (in order to not interfere with the standard FreeB= SD repository that is used to install software on the system)? The man page= suggests the --repository to be this possibilty but it does not seem to wo= rk (although I thought it had worked that way at some time, but memories ca= n be erroneous).
