Description
This is a highly-performant collection of utilities that provide alternate implementations for parts of the pkgsrc mk infrastructure.
Many targets under pkgsrc/mk are implemented using a combination of shell and awk, and can suffer from a lack of performance, especially when the number of input files grows significantly.
The replacement tools provided by mktool can be anywhere from 5 times up to 500 times faster than the defaults.
To enable, install this package or 'cargo install mktool', and then add the following lines to your mk.conf:
TOOLS\_PLATFORM.mktool= /path/to/mktool
pkgsrc will then use mktool for all targets where it is supported.
Install
Binary package:
pkgin install mktoolFrom pkgsrc:
cd /usr/pkgsrc/pkgtools/mktool && make install cleanDependencies
No port depends on this one.
