Introduction ------------ pkg_notify notifies package maintainers when a new version of the software is available. Usage ----- In order to use pkg_notify, create the /usr/pkg/etc/pkg_notify.list file containing the package list you want to be informed on. The file contains a list of category/package pairs, one per line. For example: audio/bmp devel/ncurses x11/xbindkeys You can find an example configuration file in the examples hierarchy, /usr/pkg/share/examples/pkg_notify/pkg_notify.list, in case it was not installed in the configuration directory. Otherwise, you may invoke pkg_notify this way: $ pkg_notify audio/bmp devel/ncurses x11/xbindkeys Author ------ You can contact the author at imil@gcu.info.
