pkg questions





.... I have been reading up on the pkg_* system used on my NetBSD 6.1.5 server, 2 questions pop up: Where is my pkg_install.conf file ? I used find to poke around under / & /usr & couldn't find it:


4256EE1 # find / -xdev -name pkg_install\*
4256EE1 # find / -xdev -name pkg_install\* -exec ls -lisCF {} +
4256EE1 # find /usr/ -xdev -name pkg_install\* -exec ls -lisCF {} +
2843557 16 /usr/share/man/html5/pkg_install.conf.html 2886444 8 /usr/share/man/man5/pkg_install.conf.5
4256EE1 #

I.e., man page entry, but no file .... Also, is there a pkg_* command to provide a list of either all available pkgs for installation, or all available uninstalled pkgs ? Also, how about upgrades for any installed pkgs ? TIA & have a good one.
