The pkgsrc Developers 1994-2023 The NetBSD Foundation, Inc $NetBSD: pkgsrc.xml,v 1.42 2023/01/02 05:45:23 jnemeth Exp $ pkgsrc is a centralized package management system for Unix-like operating systems. This guide provides information for users and developers of pkgsrc. It covers installation of binary and source packages, creation of binary and source packages and a high-level overview about the infrastructure. &chap.intro; &chap.help-user; &chap.getting; &chap.platform; &chap.using; &chap.configuring; &chap.binary; &chap.bulk; &chap.files; &chap.faq; This part of the book deals with creating and modifying packages. It starts with a HOWTO-like guide on creating a new package. The remaining chapters are more like a reference manual for pkgsrc. &chap.help-devel; &chap.components; &chap.build; &chap.creating; &chap.makefile; &chap.options; &chap.tools; &chap.buildlink; &chap.plist; &chap.pkginstall; &chap.fixes; &chap.gnome; &chap.submit; &chap.devfaq; This part of the guide deals with everything from the infrastructure that is behind the interfaces described in the developer's guide. A casual package maintainer should not need anything from this part. &chap.infr.design; &chap.regression; &chap.porting; &chap.examples; &chap.hardening; &chap.logs; &chap.ftp-layout; &chap.help-topics; &chap.editing;
