Install a package from remote repository

pkgmanager --installpkg package-name

Install a package from local path

pkgmanager --installpkg /path/to/package/package.txz

The example assumes that the package name is in valid form.

Fallback to upgrade operation

If we are trying to install a package that is already installed pkgmanager behaves like this:

• If the version and\or build number is higher on remote that an upgrade will be performed.
• If the version and\or build number is lower or equal the package will be skipped.

Additional options

• --allow-downgrade - allow to downgrade a package. Also used as force-upgrade switch.
• --disable-recommends  - do not download additional packages recommended by installed ones or by their dependencies
• --yes - answer "yes" to any prompt. Batch mode
• --regenerate-outdated  -  if there are outdated dependencies affected by updated packages regenerate their meta using current system.
• --overwrite - replace configs files with defaults while installing
• --resolve-conflicts - automatically remove packages which are conflicting with new packages being installed
• --root - chroot to path and perform any operations there
