PKG-CHECK(8) System Manager's Manual PKG-CHECK(8) NAME pkg check -- sanity check installed packages SYNOPSIS pkg check -d|-s [-nqvy] -a pkg check -d|-s [-nqvy] [-Cgix] pattern pkg check --{dependencies,checksums} [--{dry-run,quiet,verbose,yes}] --all pkg check --{dependencies,checksums} [--{dry-run,quiet,verbose,yes}] [--{case-sensitive,glob,case-insensitive,regex}] pattern DESCRIPTION pkg check -d or pkg check --dependencies checks for and installs miss- ing dependencies. pkg check -s or pkg check --checksums detects installed packages with invalid checksums. An invalid checksum can be caused by data corrup- tion or tampering. OPTIONS These options are supported by pkg check: -a, --all Process all packages. -C, --case-sensitive Use case sensitive standard or regular expression (-x) matching with pattern. -d, --dependencies Checks for and installs missing dependencies -g, --glob Treat pattern as a shell glob pattern. -i, --case-insensitive Use case insensitive standard or regular expression (-x) matching with pattern. This is the default unless CASE_SENSITIVE_MATCH has been set to true in pkg.conf. -n, --dry-run Only check for missing dependencies, do not install them. -s, --checksums Detects installed packages with invalid checksums -v, --verbose Be verbose. -q, --quiet Suppress most output, except for error messages and data that the command explicitly requests. This is primarily intended for scripting use. -x, --regex Treat pattern as a regular expression, using the "modern" or "extended" syntax described in re_format(7). -y, --yes Assume "yes" when asked for confirmation before in- stalling missing dependencies. ENVIRONMENT These environment variables affect the execution of pkg check. See pkg.conf(5) for additional information. PKG_DBDIR CASE_SENSITIVE_MATCH FILES See pkg.conf(5). EXAMPLES Test for missing dependencies needed by nano, installing any that are missing: pkg check -d nano Test the checksums of all installed packages to make sure none are cor- rupted: pkg check -sa SEE ALSO pkg_create(3), pkg_printf(3), pkg_repo_create(3), pkg_repos(3), pkg-keywords(5), pkg-lua-script(5), pkg-repository(5), pkg-script(5), pkg-triggers(5), pkg.conf(5), pkg(8), pkg-add(8), pkg-alias(8), pkg-annotate(8), pkg-audit(8), pkg-autoremove(8), pkg-clean(8), pkg-config(8), pkg-create(8), pkg-delete(8), pkg-fetch(8), pkg-info(8), pkg-install(8), pkg-key(8), pkg-lock(8), pkg-query(8), pkg-register(8), pkg-repo(8), pkg-repositories(8), pkg-rquery(8), pkg-search(8), pkg-set(8), pkg-shell(8), pkg-shlib(8), pkg-ssh(8), pkg-stats(8), pkg-triggers(8), pkg-update(8), pkg-updating(8), pkg-upgrade(8), pkg-version(8), pkg-which(8) FreeBSD 14.3 May 2, 2024 PKG-CHECK(8)
