NAME

6       freight - Freight configuration
7

DESCRIPTION

9       The  Freight configuration is a sourced shell script that defines a few
10       important variables.
11

OPTIONS

13       VARLIB The Freight library directory. Typically /var/lib/freight.
14
15       VARCACHE
16              The Freight cache directory. Typically /var/cache/freight.  This
17              should be the document root of the web server.
18
19       ARCHS  The architectures to support. Typically i386 amd64.
20
21       ORIGIN The Origin field in the Debian archive.
22
23       LABEL  The Label field in the Debian archive.
24
25       NOT_AUTOMATIC
26              The NotAutomatic field in the Debian archive.
27
28       BUT_AUTOMATIC_UGPRADES
29              The ButAutomaticUpgrades field in the Debian archive.
30
31       CACHE  on  to  cache package control files or off to read them from the
32              packages on each freight-cache(1) run.
33
34       GPG    The GPG key(s) to use. This value must be set either in  a  con‐
35              figuration  file  or by using the -g option to freight-cache(1).
36              Multiple keys can be given to sign the repository with more sig‐
37              natures.
38
39       GPG_PASSPHRASE_FILE
40              Pathname of a file containing the GPGP private key´s passphrase.
41              This sets the --passphrase-fd and --passphrase-file  options  to
42              gpg(1). The passphrase file can be set either in a configuration
43              file or by using the -p option to freight-cache(1).
44
45       GPG_DIGEST_ALGO
46              Message digest algorithm that GPG should use to sign the reposi‐
47              tory. Apt is phasing out SHA1 so it is recommended to use SHA512
48              for most use-cases. This sets the  --personal-digest-preferences
49              option  to  gpg(1).  The digest algorithm can be set either in a
50              configuration   file   or   by   using   the   -a   option    to
51              freight-cache(1).
52
53       SYMLINKS
54              on  to  follow  symbolic links in VARLIB to produce extra compo‐
55              nents in the cache directory or off to offer no  special  treat‐
56              ment.
57

FILES

59       /etc/freight.conf
60              The default configuration file.
