BSDADMINSCRIPTS(1) BSD General Commands Manual BSDADMINSCRIPTS(1)NAMEbsdadminscripts — perform administrative tasks
DESCRIPTION
The bsdadminscripts are a collection of scripts to deal with administra‐
tive tasks more conveniently. Look at the respective manual pages to find
out more.
BUILDFLAGS
Buildflags consists of a configuration syntax for the make(1) system nor‐
mally stored in a file called buildflags.conf(1), a converter called
buildflags.awk(1), which converts the configuration file into make syntax
and a make file buildflags.mk(1), which can be included into make.conf(5)
to use the buildflags system.
DISTVIPER
The distviper script wipes outdated files from the distdir. For this it
provides a fast mode that should be appropriate for most systems and a
thorough default that will also yield satisfying results on a dedicated
build machine.
PKG_LIBCHK
The pkg_libchk(1) script uses pkg_info(1), ldd(1) and readelf(1) to find
packages that are linked against missing libraries or libraries that
reside in %%PREFIX%%/lib/compat and its subfolders.
PKG_UPGRADE
The pkg_upgrade(1) script offers the possibility to perform binary only
package maintenance similar to tools for the FreeBSD ports tree, but only
requiring a local copy of the INDEX created by a build server.
PKG_VALIDATE
The pkg_validate(1) script uses pkg_info(1) to check for ports with
checksum mismatches or missing files.
PORTCONFIG
The portconfig(1) script runs make targets on the same ports that
portupgrade(1) would update.
RCSTART
The rcstart(1) script allows you to handle rc.d(8) scripts on the fly
without having to know the exact file name. Instead you select them by
the PROVIDE keyword.
UMA (Update MAnanager)
The uma(1) script offers locking and meta data updating services for
ports and package maintenance.
