Hi Tom, sorry I completely missed your reply.

Correct. 100 is highest priority, 0 is lowest. Take a look at the pkg.conf 
manage.

ucl is pretty forgiving.

They don't have to be. Personally I keep them in separate files.

/usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/universal.conf
  priority: 80
/usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/local.conf
  priority: 90

"man pkg.conf" says individual repository configuration files are processed in 
alphabetical order.

But according to the man page, one configuration file can specify more than one 
repository.

I guess I'll need to do some trial and error, given the confusing nature of the 
documentation.

I still want to get rid of the old no-longer-usable packages.  All I can think 
of now is Midnight Commander (mc) from NetBSD.

There ought to be a convenient way to remove outdated packages from a repo,  Or 
maybe there is but not documented, or at least not clearly documented?

I also want to look at how NetBSD pkgsrc defines/configures a repo so as to 
compare to FreeBSD.

That's an old unix tradition. PKG-REPOSITORY(5) and FETCH(3) mean
that one should use "man 5 pkg-repository" and "man 3 fetch" to
get the needed info.

This isn't well (or, at least, transparently) documented. However, if
you do 'man pkg.conf' and read down, it eventually tells you the syntax
of a repo file.

I've always put them one per file, with a name that reflects that repo.

Re: How to get pkg to recognize local repository?

[Thomas Mueller]

from Franco Fichtner:

# pkg repo /mnt/usr/packages

Would that put meta.txz and other stuff in /usr/packages ?

I could do that either by nfs (with /mnt) or directly on that computer (without 
/mnt).

But I have all the old stuff I no longer want, would not run because of shared 
libraries out of sync: 223 packages I didn't show.  How to delete? 

Or more generally, how to delete old packages in /usr/packages/All in a 
reasonable time?  Midnight Commander, which I recently installed on NetBSD but 
have not yet used?

This looks like it might help, but PKG-REPOSITORY and FETCH have to be 
lower-case, won't work with capital letters.

I suppose priority 99 would take priority over priority 98?

In normal English usage, first priority or priority one is higher than priority 
two.

Do you need the comma after the closing brace after myfirstrepo?

I suppose myfirst repo and mysecondrepo are both in the same .conf file?

Probably by having two or more config files for repos in

/usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/

I don't know how to have preferences in there.

Just out of curiosity (and because I might want to do this) how can you 
specify two (or more) repositories
and have them searched in some order.  For example,  you might have a 
local respository with some
ports/packages that you are currently debugging/fixing.  You want pkg to 
search the local respository
first and then if it does not find the packages to use the default 
(remote) repository.

What meta files?  There is a metamail-2.7_11.txz, but I don't think that's what

You want to point to file:///mnt/usr/packages instead, it should work given
the repository meta files are in there.

How to get pkg to recognize local repository?

[Thomas Mueller]

How do I get pkg to recognize a local repository such as /mnt/usr/packages/All, 
or does pkg only recognize remote repositories?

In this case, /mnt was a mount point for another FreeBSD 11.1-PRERELEASE 
installation from the same svn revision.  Second was installed from the first 
using NFS.

Even env PACKAGEPATH=/mnt/usr/packages/All pkg-static install pkg  didn't work.

pkg-static: Ignoring bad configuration entry in 
/usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/mytemprepo.conf: "file:///mnt/usr/packages/All"
pkg-static: Warning: Major OS version upgrade detected.  Running "pkg-static 
install -f pkg" recommended
No active remote repositories configured.

What is the proper URL or format for a file name/directory?  Is it necessary to 
precede with URL: or what do I have to do to make it look like a repository?  I 
have been unable to get anything to work.

While it would be easier to just build the packages again, I would like to know 
how to install from one computer or installation to another without recompiling.
