user package variables
.Sh DESCRIPTION
This manual page describes the variables that users of the
.Nx
packages system can set to alter the configuration of the package system,
and individual packages.
.Sh COMMON VARIABLES
This section documents variables that typically apply to all packages.
Many of these may be set in
.Xr mk.conf 5 .
.Bl -tag -offset indent -width XXXXXXXXX
.It ARCH
The architecture, as returned by
.Dq uname -m .
See
.Xr uname 1 .
.It OPSYS
The operating system name, as returned by
.Dq uname -s .
.It LOCALBASE
Where non-X11 based packages will be installed.
The default is
.Pa /usr/pkg .
.It CROSSBASE
Where
.Dq cross
category packages will be installed.
The default is
.Pa ${LOCALBASE}/cross .
.It X11BASE
Where X11 is installed on the system, and where
.Dq X11
category packages will be installed.
The default is
.Pa /usr/X11R6 .
.It DISTDIR
Where to get gzip'd, tarballed copies of original sources.  The default is
.Pa ${PKGSRCDIR}/distfiles .
.It MASTER_SITE_BACKUP
Backup location(s) for distribution files and patch files if not found
locally and ${MASTER_SITES}/${PATCH_SITES}.  The Defaults are
.Pa ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/distfiles/${DIST_SUBDIR}/
and
.Pa ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/distfiles/${DIST_SUBDIR}/ .
.It MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE
If set, override the MASTER_SITES setting with this value.
.It PACKAGES
A top level directory where all packages go (rather than going locally
to each package).  The default is
.Pa ${PKGSRCDIR}/packages .
.It GMAKE
Set to path of GNU make if not in $PATH (default: gmake).
.It PKG_FC
Set to the path of the desired fortran compiler (default: f2c-f77).
.It XMKMF
Set to path of
.Dq xmkmf
if not in $PATH (default: xmkmf -a).
.It WRKOBJDIR
A top level directory where, if defined, the separate working
directories will get created, and symbolically linked to from
.Pa ${WRKDIR}
(see below).  This is useful for building packages on several
architectures, then
.Pa ${PKGSRCDIR}
can be NFS-mounted while
.Pa ${WRKOBJDIR}
is local to every arch.
(It should be noted that
.Pa ${PKGSRCDIR}
should not be set by the user - it is an internal definition
which refers to the root of the pkgsrc tree. It is possible
to have many pkgsrc tree instances.)
.It PKG_DEVELOPER
Run some sanity checks that package developers want:
.Bl -bullet
.It
make sure patches apply with zero fuzz
.It
run check-shlibs to see that all binaries will find their
shared libs.
.El
.It USE_GLX
Says that if Mesa is requested, a package should preferably use a
GLX (hardware-accelerated) version of the Mesa library.
.It BINPKG_SITES
List of sites carrying binary pkgs. Variables
.It LOCALPATCHES
Directory for local patches that aren't part of pkgsrc. See
pkgsrc/Packages.txt for more information.
.Dq rel
and
.Dq arch
are
replaced with OS release (
.Dq 1.5 ,
etc.) and architecture (
.Dq mipsel ,
etc.).
.El

.It DISTFILES
Name(s) of archive file(s) containing distribution.  The default is
.Pa ${DISTNAME}${EXTRACT_SUFX} .
.It PATCHFILES
Name(s) of additional files that contain distribution patches
There is no default.  Make will look for them at

version of the OS.  Such binary packages are not backwards compatible with
other versions of the OS, and should be uploaded to a version specific

package system internals, but may be used in the future.  Set this to
.Dq YES
