HowTo - LNAV installation (Ncurses Log Viewer)

[astromeier]

Dear all!
The GUI gives great views to the log files, but not the shell. (@OPNsense V19.1.4)

I missed my beloved LNAV (lnav.org) - at freeBSD a port exists, but that wasn't installable via the OPNsense repo.

But i found my way:
Logged in as root:

Code Select Expand


cd ~
wget http://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:11:amd64/latest/All/lnav-0.8.4.txz
pkg add lnav-0.8.4.txz


I'm happy ;-)
