PKGFIND(1)

NAME
pkgfind - find packages in pkgsrc

SYNOPSIS
pkgfind [-CcMqx] [-n number] keyword [...]

DESCRIPTION
pkgfind can find packages in pkgsrc. It tries to find packages which match the keyword in the package name.

pkgfind searches in /usr/pkgsrc by default. You may specify a different path by setting the environment variable PKGSRCDIR.

The following options may be used:

-C  Search in the “COMMENT” field, instead of looking at package names.

-c  Do case sensitive searches.

-D  Show the contents of the “DESCR” file when a match is found.

-M  Search in the “MAINTAINER” field, instead of looking at package names.

-P  Search in the “PLIST” file, instead of looking at package names. Useful when you only know the name of a file contained in a package.

-n number
    Stop searching after number packages are found.

-q  Don't show the comment in the output, only the package name.

-x  Do exact word searches.
