Title: Create (or modify) an package with different config
Post by: tom-castro on August 12, 2021, 08:15:02 PM
I would like to install and use rrdtool but which need to be configured GRAPH support. For that reason I check the following page (https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/software_included.html#the-ports-tree) to use the existing ports and build it by my own.

What I've done so far:


cd /usr/ports/databases/rrdtool
make config
make reinstall


But for some reason after another install via the web interface all dependencies got removed. This result in a broken rrdtool because of missing dependencies. A pkg upgrade started a reinstall of the version from opnsense.

What would be the easiest and correct way to build / modify an existing package and install it with all dependencies?

Thanks for your support.
