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).
Regards,
Wolfgang
