fix pkg create -f description in the manpages #2019

Open l2fl2f opened 2 years ago

l2fl2f commented 2 years ago

when using pkg create -f txz PACKAGE_NAME the resulting package has a pkg extension not a txz one, using pkg-1.17.5 on 12.2-p12, 12.3-p0 and 13.0-p6

it is expected the extension is always .pkg, for the compression format is tar.xz

l2fl2f commented 2 years ago

Dear, So please correct the man page and the usage or remove the -f --format argument.

you are right

l2fl2f commented 2 years ago

I misunderstood or I took the format argument as the final extension of the package_name. the format argument is correct just, may be, add on the manpage that the extension of the package will be ".pkg".

Sorry

l2fl2f commented 2 years ago

Dear Sir, I am pretty wrong, you are right, I finally understand what format is, I misunderstood or I took the format as the extension name and I was wrong on this point., sorry, before, when iI did "pkg create -f txz PACKAGE_NAME" I got a PACKAGE_NAME.txz ready to be process by "pkg add PACKAGE_NAME.txz" that was my error. So now I modified my script to rename the newly package_name.pkg to txz. Sorry for the noise ( I took you as my Rubber_Duck, next time I will find somebody else) Regards and thank you for your patience
