First off, I would like to say you guys have done an awesome job w/ OpenPKG. You have saved me lots of trouble having to upgrade my FreeBSD 4.0R box that is in a remote location. The ports collection no longer works correctly, packages are hit and miss...but now OpenPKG to the rescue.
I was trying to install sudo and it would not install due to a generic MTA dependency. I have one of the latest snapshots of postfix installed on this machine from source, and do not need an MTA. I've seen some references to creating a "virtual package." I've even found this: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=openpkg-users&m=105800389211960&w=2 ...but even with that and all of the documentation (Handbook/FAQ, etc.), the process for creating these "virtual" packages is vague at best. I would be one of the very grateful OPKG users if this could be spelled out somewhere for someone who is not really a programmer, and can make only crude scripts. Could someone direct me to a tutorial/quicky FAQ item, something that tells me how to create a "virtual package" to meet the MTA dependency? Also.....given all the documentation, I still really have no clue how to use lsync. Is there anywhere I can get more information using htat? How does lsync fit in the process above? I'd appreciate any help you guys could provide with these issues.
