ucf.conf - site-wide configuration file for
|
|
<B>ucf</B>
|
|
|

<A NAME="lbAC"> </A>
|
|
<H2>SYNOPSIS</H2>

|
<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
|
|
|
|
The file
|
|
<I>/etc/ucf.conf</I>
|
|
|
|
is actually a
|
|
<B>Bourne Shell</B>
|
|
|
|
snippet included during the package build process, and hence you may
|
|
put any shell directive in that file (just make very sure you know
|
|
what you are doing).
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
All the variables have reasonable default values, and some may be
|
|
overridden on a per run or a per individual basis by using
|
|
environment variables, and all configurable variables can be
|
|
overridden by options to the scripts themselves.
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
The value of a variable can be set so:
|
|
<DL COMPACT>
|
|
<DT id="1">a)<DD>
|
|
Defaults exist in the rules file. These are the values used if no
|
|
customization is done.
|
|
<DT id="2">b)<DD>
|
|
Some variables can be set in the config file
|
|
<I>/etc/ucf.conf. </I>
|
|
|
|
These values override the defaults.
|
|
<DT id="3">c)<DD>
|
|
Some variables can also be set by setting a corresponding environment
|
|
variable. These values override the config file and the defaults.
|
|
<DT id="4">d)<DD>
|
|
Using script command line
|
|
options. All configurable variables may be set by this method, and
|
|
will override the other methods above.

At the moment, the user modifiable variables supported are:
|
|
<DL COMPACT>
|
|
<DT id="5"><B>DEBUG</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
Debugging information: The default value is 0 (no debugging
|
|
information is printed). To enable debugging output, set the value to
|
|
1.
|
|
<DT id="6"><B>VERBOSE</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
Verbosity: The default value is 0 (quiet). To change the default
|
|
behavior, set the value to 1.
|
|
<DT id="7"><B>conf_force_conffold</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
Force the installed file to be retained. The default is to have this
|
|
variable unset, which makes the script ask in case of doubt. This can
|
|
be overridden by the environment variable
|
|
<B>UCF_FORCE_CONFFOLD</B>
|
|
|
|
<DT id="8"><B>conf_force_conffnew</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
Force the installed file to be overridden. The default is to have this
|
|
variable unset, which makes the script ask in case of doubt. This can
|
|
be overridden by the environment variable
|
|
<B>UCF_FORCE_CONFFNEW</B>
|
|
|
|
<DT id="9"><B>conf_source_dir</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
This is the directory where the historical md5sums for a file are
|
|
looked for. Specifically, the historical md5sums are looked for in
|
|
either the file
|
|
<I>${filename}.md5sum,</I>
|
|
|
|
or the subdirectory
|
|
<I>${filename}.md5sum.d/ </I>
|
|
|
|
<DT id="10"><B>conf_old_mdsum_file</B>
|
|
|
|
<DD>
|
|
Force the historical md5sums to be read from this file, rather than
|
|
defaulting to living in the source directory. Setting this option
|
|
overrides settings in the environment variable
|
|
<B>UCF_OLD_MDSUM_FILE</B>
