Description Alexander Best 2009-06-18 09:30:01 UTC 
the example at the end of the pkgdb(1) manual recommends to use the following command to get a list of files in /usr/local and /usr/X11R6 which don't belong to any package:

find /usr/local /usr/X11R6 -type f | xargs pkg_which -v | fgrep '?'

this command however will fail. the example should look like this:

find /usr/local /usr/X11R6 -print0 -type f | xargs -0 pkg_which -v | fgrep '?'

Comment 5 Alexander Best 2009-11-11 01:46:18 UTC 
thanks for committing the change request i issued in that pr. just noticed
that you might want to change the directories in the example too since
nowadays /usr/X11R6 is linked to /usr/local. so running the current example
probably returns all files not installed by a package twice. maybe this
example makes more sense:

find /usr/local/lib /usr/local/include -print0 -type f | xargs -0 pkg_which -v
| fgrep '?'

cheers.

this change still hasn't been committed to HEAD or any other branch.
in fact it's only in cvs/projects. the sources hosted on SF are also
missing this commit.

cheers.

Comment 8 Alexander Best freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2010-08-25 11:35:02 UTC 
pleas also see my previous post, where i mentioned that using /usr/X11R6 and
/usr/local as search directories isn't really a good example any longer.

cheers.
