This is likely an old issue with tracking shared library dependencies. https://github.com/freebsd/pkg/issues/1015 (In reply to Bryan Drewery from comment #1) A found referenced bug before I filed this PR because I thought it was already fixed and this is new one. Is this old issue? Is there something I can fix / workaround in local pkg database? It is really annoying to run pkg autoremove after each pkg install or pkg upgrade.
It always want to install libarchive and some other libs.
# pkg install pear-Net_DNS2

*** Bug 228389 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Still an issue? (In reply to daniel.engberg.lists from comment #5) I cannot say if it was the same issue or just a similar one but the last month I installed "some package" on bunch of our servers, it pulled "another package" as dependency and then "pkg autoremove" deleted this dependency. Unfortunately I don't remember the exact package names. If you want to close this issue then close it and I will reopen it if I see this again. Since I moved to using both FreeBSD 12amd64 latest repo and my own internal repo I'm seeing a lot of this with almost every pkg-install or pkg-upgrade. pkg is installing gcc9 (and deps) to only have pkg-autoremove remove them. My current test case is: 1) Use FreeBSD 12amd64 latest repo 2) Create a local repo via 'poudriere bulk -j 12amd64 lang/gcc9' 3) Configure pkg to use both repos 4) 'pkg install py27-sqlite3' This should try to install gcc9. |
Sometimes (very often in my case with about 20 machines) "pkg install" or "pkg upgrade" installed some packages which were not needed and running "pkg autoremove" imediately after previsou upgrade / install command just uninstall those packages. This is simple example from today. I just need to install "pgtop", along with dependencies "libnghttp2" were also installed: root@fido ~/# pkg install pgtop Updating codelab repository catalogue...
