fs-pkg

Package filesystem (QNX Neutrino)

---

QNX Neutrino no longer uses packages, but third-party software can. You must be root to start this manager.

---

Syntax:

fs-pkg [-a alternate_file] [-d] [-v[v]...]
       [-f config_file]

Runs on:

Neutrino

Options:

-a alternate_file

Provide an alternative configuration file to use if no other configurations are available.

-d

Don't automatically become a daemon. This option is useful when you want verbose output for debugging.

-f config_file

Read the configuration from the file, config_file. If you don't specify this option, fs-pkg looks in:

• /etc/host_cfg/hostname/etc/system/package/packages
• /etc/system/package/packages
• /etc/host_cfg/hostname/etc/system/packages (deprecated)
• /etc/system/packages (deprecated)

-v[v]...

Verbose output; more v characters cause more verbosity. The output is sent to the system log if syslogd is running, and to standard output if fs-pkg is running in the foreground.

Description:

The package filesystem is a virtual filesystem manager that presents to a client a customized view of a set of files and directories. The real files are present on some medium, and the package filesystem presents a virtual view of selected files to the client.

Files:

/etc/host_cfg/hostname/etc/system/packages, /etc/system/packages

Default configuration files.
