It keeps track of the versions -of packages installed on the local system and the versions of -packages on a remote server. This allows you to issue a single -command and have you system's packages brought into sync. -.SH OPERATIONS -.TP -.B "sync" -Download a new copy of the package list from the server. This -should be done regularly, usually before an "install", "upgrade" -or "sysupgrade" command. -.TP -.B "install <package>" -Install a new package. \fBpacsync\fP will first look for the package -in the cache directory. If it is not there, it will attempt to -download the file from the server. On success, the package will -be installed. (Note that the downloaded file is also copied to -a cache directory on your filesystem. You can delete it with -"clean"). -.TP -.B "upgrade <package>" -Upgrade a package. This is the same as \fIinstall\fP, except a package -is upgraded (ie, it is already installed in the system). -.TP -.B "report" -Generate an upgrade report. This operation will compare all local -package versions to remote versions, and then show you a report of -the differences. -.TP -.B "sysupgrade" -Full system upgrade. This is the same as report except after confirmation, -\fBpacsync\fP will upgrade all packages that are not up to date. -.TP -.B "clean" -This will remove all downloaded packages from the cache directory. This -can/should be used regularly to free up diskspace. -.SH CONFIGURATION -Configuration options are stored in /etc/pacsync.conf. Currently there is only -one directive. -.TP -.B "SYNC_SERVER" -This should be set to the full URL of the download server closest to you. -FTP is preferred, but HTTP is supported also, provided you have wget. -.SH AUTHOR -.nf -Judd Vinet <jvinet@zeroflux.org> -.fi |
