For that reason, # there are some variables that control how much details are shown to # the pkgsrc user. # # User-settable variables: # # PKG_DEBUG_LEVEL # How verbose should pkgsrc be when running shell commands? # # * 0: don't show most shell commands. # * 1: print the complete shell command to stdout before running # it. # * 2: like 1, but in addition, set the "-x" option of /bin/sh, # so that every single command is printed to stderr before # running it. # # PKG_VERBOSE # When this variable is defined, pkgsrc gets a bit more verbose. # This variable is largely independent from PKG_DEBUG_LEVEL. # # Default value: (undefined) # # XXX: Why are there _two_ variables doing similar things? # # Keywords: debug verbose #
