Hi all, currently all options for wget are hardcoded in pkgmk, which is very inflexible and doesn't allow user-specific settings. See [1] [2]. Unfortunately wget has not command-line option to read in an alternative configuration file, other than the default /etc/wgetrc and ~/.wgetrc. I'd propose a solution similar to that I've done for the pure-ftpd, which includes a custom configuration file via some bash tasks. It might look like that in pkgmk: WGET_CONF=/etc/pkgmk_wget.conf WGET_ARGS=$(sed '/^#/d' $WGET_CONF) WGET="/usr/bin/wget $WGET_ARGS" and pkgmk_wget.conf: # wget configuration for pkgmk --no-check-certificate --no-cache # End of file Sounds this interesting? best regards Juergen PS: curl has a nice -K/--config option ;-) [1] http://crux.nu/bugs/index.php?do=details&task_id=241 [2] http://crux.nu/bugs/index.php?do=details&task_id=347 -- Juergen Daubert | mailto:jue@jue.li Korb, Germany | http://jue.li/crux
