List contents of the system requirements DB, for a platform

It also tries to update the system dependency database, if it is outdated. (I.e. older than allowed in the metadata_update_after man_config_link("configuration option").

Usage

sysreqs_db_list(sysreqs_platform = NULL)

Arguments

sysreqs_platform

System requirements platform. If NULL, then the sysreqs_platform man_config_link("configuration option") is used, which defaults to the current platform. Set this option if .packageName does not detect your platform correctly.

Value

Data frame with columns:

• name: cross platform system dependency name in the database.

• patterns: one or more regular expressions to match to SystemRequirements fields.

• packages: one or more system package names to install.

• pre_install: command(s) to run before installing the packages.

• post_install:: command(s) to run after installing the packages.
