- Add support to explicitly select which wrappers are wanted on a system and which ones are not. This is done through a configuration file that defines a filter with a set of actions and regular expressions (example file included). - Add an examples section to the manual page with solutions for some FAQs.

- Add the destroy action, used to remove the alternatives database as well as any known wrappers. - Use the rebuild/destroy actions at install/deinstall time respectively so that this package can be installed at any time and pick up automatically available alternatives from PKG_DBDIR. Per suggestion from reed@ in tech-pkg@.
2005-01-25Initial import of pkg_alternatives, version 1.0:jmmv7-0/+1103
pkg_alternatives is a tool to manage the alternatives system provided by The NetBSD Packages Collection, also known as pkgsrc. It creates, configures and destroys generic wrappers used to run programs with similar interfaces. No objections in tech-pkg@. Agreed with jlam@, who has provided lots of design suggestions.
