CVS commit: src/usr.sbin/pkg_install

["Alistair G. Crooks" <agc%netbsd.org@localhost>]

Module Name:    src
Committed By:   agc
Date:           Sun Dec 21 11:31:46 UTC 2003

Modified Files:
        src/usr.sbin/pkg_install: Makefile
        src/usr.sbin/pkg_install/lib: version.h
Added Files:
        src/usr.sbin/pkg_install/bpm: Makefile bpm.1 bpm.sh

Log Message:
Add a simple text menu-based binary package manager, bpm(1).

bpm uses ftp(1) and pkg_add(1) to allow a menu-based addition of
binary packages from a URL.  It first displays a list of categories,
and, within categories, binary packages, which can be added to the
local system simply by choosing them from a menu.

If no valid categories are found, a warning message will be displayed
(it is usually caused by people running NetBSD-current, and there are
rarely binary packages provided for such a fast-moving target, and the
"-r release" command-line switch to bpm(1) should be used).

Bump the pkg_install version number for this.
