I used this script: https://github.com/pageflt/freebsd-mkmnfst to make an Manifest file. Then created a package using $ pkg create -M ./MANIFEST command. But the package only has the MANIFEST file in it. How do I include all the other files? I ran pkg create from inside the dir with the MANIFEST file and other files, but reading this: https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?pkg-create(8)#end#end) I cannot figure out how I specify to include the other files to install. Does anyone know? Please don't reply unless you are specifically answering my question. I'm not trying to use ports and go that route.
I'm trying to make a package of: https://github.com/mkropat/jumpapp what do I need to read? I've have looked through all of the files trying to figure it out, but I don't know how to make a package and include all the files in addition to the manifest. Where do you specify which files go in the package? I know the dependencies are specified in the manifest, but where do you specify the actual program files that go in the package?
I can share that project access via Gitlab ( mine on https://gitlab.com/coolcold/simple-freebsd-pkg ), may be you will find something useful for yourself. I'm not ready to make it public, due to need of cleanup, ping me if you think making packages for FreeBSD still worth it.
