10 bpkg pkg-install|install [options] [vars] --all|-a
11
13 The pkg-install command installs the specified packages (the first
14 form) or all held packages (the second form, see bpkg-pkg-status(1)).
15 Additionally, immediate or all dependencies of these packages can be
16 also installed by specifying the --immediate|-i or --recursive|-r
17 options, respectively. Underneath, this command doesn't do much more
18 than run b install. In the first form the specified packages must have
19 been previously configured with bpkg-pkg-build(1) or bpkg-pkg-config‐
20 ure(1).
21 Additional command line variables (vars, normally config.*) can be
23 passed to the build system. Such variables apply to all the specified
24 packages but can also be specified to only apply to specific packages
25 using the argument grouping mechanism (see bpkg-argument-grouping(1)
26 for details). In particular, this mechanism can be used to specify the
27 installation directory, for example:
28 bpkg install config.install.root=/usr/local \
30 config.install.sudo=sudo \
31 libfoo libbar
32 Alternatively, the installation directory can be specified once when
34 creating the configuration (bpkg-cfg-create(1)).
35
37 --all|-a
38 Install all held packages.
39 --immediate|-i
41 Also install immediate dependencies.
42 --recursive|-r
44 Also install all dependencies, recursively.
45 --directory|-d dir
47 Assume configuration is in dir rather than in the current work‐
48 ing directory.
