Yes, that seems to be exactly what I have been missing from the man
page. Lookint at the man page again, I was confused by the fact that -R
is not listed for 'install' subcommand. It's probably meant to be
'general' option for all pkg subcommands, but if you are looking for one
specific subcommand and not reading the man page as a book, you will
miss it ...
Thank you
