Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org> has asked freebsd-pkg mailing li= st <pkg@FreeBSD.org> for maintainer-feedback: Bug 233799: ports-mgmt/pkg: pkg install should report if a port is broken instead of acting like it does not exist. https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D233799 --- Description --- Just like the title says. I tried to install a package "fs-uae" which I wasn't sure about the correct package name. `pkg install` or `pkg search` could not find any such package= . I tried e-uae, uae, fs-uae-launcher but none gave me what I wanted. It turns = out fs-uae was the correct name and that is has been marked broken. It would be nice if pkg could tell me about this.=20 Cheers
