Summary | 0004273: RFE: Pull in dependencies even when installing a local file | ||||||
Description |
I have just used pkgutil 1.9.1 to install my experimental postfix package. I couldn't use -t as the experimental repository is currently broken, so I downloaded it manually and invoked pkgutil with -i on the local file. This only installs the package and doesn't seem to inspect the dependencies contained in the package. Could you add dependency handling for local file installs to be more consistent with the default operation mode of pkgutil (which is to pull in deps)? If someone doesn't want this to happen they should be able to say -N to suppress this. As a workaround I thought about pulling in the dependencies via "pkgutil -i postfix -x CSWpostfix", which would work in general, but I would only get the dependencies of the version from current/ (and the dependencies of the experimental package have changed compared to the ones from current). I know this wouldn't be required if experimental wasn't broken, but the dependency handling would still be a helpful addition to pkgutil. |
