Summary 0003683: Add a pkgadd/pkgrm debug option
Description
pkgutil already has a debug option, but it is only used to debug pkgutil itself.
It would be useful to add a pkgadd debug option which would add the -v option in pkgadd/pkgrm calls.

It would help to debug user problem with postinstall/preremove/... code without having to tell me to manually download/uncompress/pkgadd the package.

Would it be ok if it was an option in pkgutil.conf? I'm trying to be conservative about the number of command line options.

You already have the pkgaddopts option in pkgutil.conf, don't you ?

My idea is to just tell a user to do pkgutil --trace --install packagename (for example) when they got a postinstall/preremove/... so then they can very easily send me the debug output.

I would prefer this option to be a command line option because I think it will be easier for the user, but that's your call.

You're absolutely right.

You now have a --trace option that sets -v for pkgadd/pkgrm operations. You can download the updated pkgutil script from:

http://pkgutil.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pkgutil/trunk/pkgutil?revision=46 [^]

Let me know if it's what you want.
