Hello, I was trying to find a way to list all the packages on my system and I came across this little article and accordingly issued the command *pkg_info | grep 'package name' *and I saw the following on the screen instead:
pkg_info: the package info for package 'Terminal-0.2.8' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'Thunar-0.9.0' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'doodle-0.6.6_1' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'hal-0.5.8.20070909' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'libexo-0.3.4' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'libextractor-0.5.18_2' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'libglade2-2.6.2' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'py25-libxml2-2.6.30' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'rarian-0.6.0_1' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'xf86-input-keyboard-1.2.2_1' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'xf86-input-mouse-1.2.3' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'xf86-video-ati-6.7.195' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'xf86-video-i810-1.6.5_3' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'xf86-video-nv-2.1.6' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'xf86-video-sunffb-1.1.0_4' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'xf86-video-vesa-1.3.0_1' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'xf86-video-vga-4.1.0_1' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'xfce-4.4.2' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'xfce4-desktop-4.4.2' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'xorg-7.3_1' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'xorg-drivers-7.3' is corrupt pkg_info: the package info for package 'xorg-server-1.4_4,1' is corrupt How did the pkg_info information for the above mentioned packages became corrupt?..Is there to fix this problem? Furthermore, how do see the list of all the available(installed) packages on my system? It looks like the command above only returned packages for which the pkg_info is corrupt. Hope to hear from you, Regards, AIjaz BAig. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
