DESCRIPTION
     pkg info is used for displaying information for packages.

OPTIONS
     The following options are supported by pkg info:

     -a, --all
	     Display all installed packages.

     -A, --annotations
	     Display any annotations added to the package.

     -C, --case-sensitive
	     Make the standard or the regular expression (-x) matching against
	     pkg-name case sensitive.

     -f, --full
	     Display full information about the packages matching pkg-name.
	     This is the default.

     -R, --raw
	     Display the full manifest (raw) for the packages matching
	     pkg-name.

     --raw-format format
	     Choose the format of the raw output.  The format can be: json,
	     json-compact, yaml (default).

     -e, --exists
	     If pkg-name is installed and registered in the database, return
	     0, otherwise return 1.  Useful for checking whether the package
	     is installed.

     -D, --pkg-message
	     Show the pkg-message for matching packages.

     -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.

     -I, --comment
	     Display the specified packages and their comments.

     -x, --regex
	     Treat pkg-name as a regular expression according to the "modern"
	     or "extended" syntax of re_format(7).

     -d, --dependencies
	     Display the list of packages on which pkg-name depends.

     -r, --required-by
	     Display the list of packages which require pkg-name.

     -k, --locked
	     Show the locking status for pkg-name.  When used in combination
	     with -d or -r, indicate which packages, dependencies or require-
	     ments are locked by '(*)'.  Locking status is only meaningful for
	     installed packages; all locking statuses will show as unlocked
	     when information about a pkg-file is queried.

     -l, --list-files
	     Display all files installed by pkg-name.

     -b, --provided-shlibs
	     Display all shared libraries provided by pkg-name.

     -B, --required-shlibs
	     Display all shared libraries used by pkg-name.

     -s, --size
	     Display the total size of files installed by pkg-name.

     -q, --quiet
	     Be ``quiet''.  Prints only the requested information without dis-
	     playing many hints.

     -O, --by-origin
	     Search is done by the pkg-name origin.  Added only for Ports com-
	     patibility.

     -E, --show-name-only
	     Hides the full package output and only shows the package name.
	     This option is deprecated and exists only for Ports compatibil-
	     ity.

     -o, --origin
	     Display pkg-name origin.

     -p, --prefix
	     Display the installation prefix for each package matching
	     pkg-name.

     -F pkg-file, --file pkg-file
	     Displays information from the package archive pkg-file.
