NAME
pkg_info -- a utility for displaying information on software packages

SYNOPSIS
pkg_info [-bcdDEfghGiIjkKLmopPqQrRsvVxX] [-e package] [-l prefix]
[-t template] -a | pkg-name ...
pkg_info [-qQ] -W filename
pkg_info [-qQ] -O origin
pkg_info

DESCRIPTION
The pkg_info command is used to dump out information for packages, either
packed up in files with the pkg_create(1) command or already installed on
the system with the pkg_add(1) command.

OPTIONS
The following command line options are supported:

pkg-name ...
The named packages are described. A package name may either be
the name of an installed package, the pathname to a package dis-
tribution file or a URL to an FTP available package. Package
version numbers can also be matched in a relational manner using
the >=, <=, > and < operators. For example,

pkg_info 'portupgrade>=20030723'

will match versions 20030723 and later of the portupgrade pack-
age.

The GNU Project's Bourne Again SHell


Description:
This is GNU Bash.  Bash is the GNU Project's Bourne Again SHell,
a complete implementation of the POSIX.2 shell spec, but also
with interactive command line editing, job control on architectures
that support it, csh-like features such as history substitution and
brace expansion, and a slew of other features.
