pkg lock is used to lock packages against
reinstallation, modification or deletion. pkg unlock
unlocks the named packages. Either variant only has an effect on currently
installed packages. Consequently it is impossible to block installation of a
new package by using this mechanism, unless such an installation implies
updating a locked package.
The impact of locking a package is wider than simply preventing
modifications to the package itself. Any operation
implying modification of the locked package will be blocked. This
includes:
- Attempts to reinstall, up- or downgrade or delete the locked package
itself.
- Installation, up- or downgrade of a package where the resultant package
would have a dependency on a different version of the locked package.
- Deletion, up- or downgrade of any package the locked package depends upon,
either directly or as a consequence of installing or upgrading some third
package.
The following options are supported by pkg
lock:
-a,
---all- Lock or unlock all installed packages.
-C,
--case-sensitive- Make the standard or the regular expression (
-x)
matching against pkg-name case sensitive.
-g,
--glob- Treat pkg-name as a shell glob pattern.
-i,
--case-insensitive- Make the standard or the regular expression (
-x)
matching against pkg-name case insensitive. This is
the default, unless modified by setting
CASE_SENSITIVE_MATCH to true in
pkg.conf.
-l,
--show-locked- Show a list of all locked packages. This can be used without locking or
unlocking any packages, in which case privileged access to the package
database is not required. Otherwise it will be displayed after any lock or
unlock operations.
-q,
--quiet- Operate quietly: do not output anything other than confirmatory
questions.
-x,
--regex- Treat pkg-name as a regular expression according to
the "modern" or "extended" syntax of
re_format(7).
-y,
--yes- Assume "yes" as the answer to all questions.
--has-locked-packages- Return 0 if at least one package is locked, 1 otherwise
