DESCRIPTION
pkg add installs packages from either a local source or
a remote one.
When installing from a remote source you need to specify the protocol to use when fetching the package.
Currently supported protocols are FTP, HTTP and HTTPS.
Otherwise, pkg add will read the file
named on the command line.
If this is a regular file, and the package to be installed has
unmet dependencies, pkg add will search the
directory containing pkg-name for suitable pkg archive
files to fulfill those dependencies. If pkg-name is
literally - then it will read the package data from
stdin. pkg add will automatically detect and unpack
most common compression formats based on the content of the data stream it
reads, ignoring any extension the filename may have.
If this involves reading from a pipe (including
stdin), fifo, socket or some other non-regular form
of input stream then pkg add will immediately emit
an error if pkg-name has unmet dependencies.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported bypkg add:
-A,--automatic- Mark the installed packages as automatic. Will be automatically removed if no other packages depend on them. For more information please refer to pkg-autoremove(8).
-f,--force- Force the reinstallation of the package if already installed.
-I,--no-scripts- If any installation scripts (pre-install or post-install) exist for given packages, do not execute them.
-M,--accept-missing- Force the installation of the package with missing dependencies.
-q,--quiet- Force quiet output.
--relocatelocation- Annotates the package as having been relocated to location, which is an alternate system root. This is an experimental feature and intended for cross-architecture package management. There is no corresponding single letter option. (DEPRECATED)
