pkg.packages
¶
Manage pkg_* packages.
pkg.packages(packages=None, present=True, pkg_path=None)
- packages: list of packages to ensure
- present: whether the packages should be installed
- pkg_path: the PKG_PATH environment variable to set
- pkg_path:
By default this is autogenerated as follows (tested/working for OpenBSD):
http://ftp.<OS>.org/pub/<OS>/<VERSION>/packages/<ARCH>/
. Note that OpenBSD’s official mirrors only hold the latest two versions packages.NetBSD/FreeBSD helpfully use their own directory structures, so the default won’t work.
