NAME

     bsdadminscripts - perform administrative tasks


DESCRIPTION

     The bsdadminscripts are a collection of scripts to deal with
     administrative tasks more conveniently. Look at the respective manual
     pages to find out more.

   BUILDFLAGS
     Buildflags consists of a configuration syntax for the make(1) system
     normally stored in a file called buildflags.conf(1), a converter called
     buildflags.awk(1), which converts the configuration file into make syntax
     and a make file buildflags.mk(1), which can be included into make.conf(5)
     to use the buildflags system.

   DISTVIPER
     The distviper script wipes outdated files from the distdir. For this it
     provides a fast mode that should be appropriate for most systems and a
     thorough default that will also yield satisfying results on a dedicated
     build machine.

   PKG_LIBCHK
     The pkg_libchk(1) script uses pkg_info(1), ldd(1) and readelf(1) to find
     packages that are linked against missing libraries or libraries that
     reside in %%PREFIX%%/lib/compat and its subfolders.

   PKG_UPGRADE
     The pkg_upgrade(1) script offers the possibility to perform binary only
     package maintenance similar to tools for the FreeBSD ports tree, but only
     requiring a local copy of the INDEX created by a build server.

   PKG_VALIDATE
     The pkg_validate(1) script uses pkg_info(1) to check for ports with
     checksum mismatches or missing files.

   PORTCONFIG
     The portconfig(1) script runs make targets on the same ports that
     portupgrade(1) would update.

   RCSTART
     The rcstart(1) script allows you to handle rc.d(8) scripts on the fly
     without having to know the exact file name. Instead you select them by
     the PROVIDE keyword.

   UMA (Update MAnanager)
     The uma(1) script offers locking and meta data updating services for
     ports and package maintenance.
