Dear all, as pkg cannot handle CONFLICTS_INSTALL I tried now to implement this as a preinstall command using @preexec in pkg-plist. The command should check if a package is installed and stop the installation or continue if the package is not installed. I tried it with the following command: @preexec `/usr/sbin/pkg -N info -e gogs`; if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo "Gitlab cannot be installed together with gogs as both of them modify .ssh/authorized_keys" && exit 1; else echo "Gogs not installed, continue."; fi But it does not work. Now matter if gogs is installed or not. If I execute the same line in a shell script, it works fine. Anyone an idea?
