# NAME

**apkg.conf** - configuration file for  apkg

# DESCRIPTION

**apkg.conf** is the configuration file for the **apkg** package manager for the alice linux distribution.
It resides by default under `/etc` in an alice linux installation.
The contents are sourced by the **apkg** program and are in the posix shell `key="value"` format.

# CONFIGURATION KEYS

- `APKG_NOPROMPT`		If set, it enables non-interactive use by disabling user confirmation prompt.
- `APKG_PACKAGE_DIR`		Directory where the compiled packages will reside.
- `APKG_SOURCE_DIR`		Directory that will hold the downloaded sources.
- `APKG_WORK_DIR`			Directory where the actual building process will take place. This happens in subdirectories which are cleaned after completion.
- `APKG_LOG`		If set, it enables the creation of a log for the program output.
- `export CFLAGS="<cflags>"` Default <cflags> are *-O3 -march=x86-64 -pipe*
- `export CXXFLAGS="$CFLAGS"`
- `export NINJAJOBS="<-x>"` Replace <-x> with the number of jobs the ninja build system with use. Without this it will use the maximum amount of threads the processor suports.
- `export MAKEFLAGS="-jx"`  Replace <x> with the number of jobs the make build system with use.
