Does pkg log it's activity?
-
Is there a log for pkg saved anywhere? A google search says pkg in FreeBSD logs to /var/log/messages but my pfSense box has no such log file. Trying to get a handle of what I've done on the system manually.

Look in /conf/ and you'll find pkg logs.

Can't find any log in /conf other than one file from a package remove I did through the GUI. I've installed a few packages my hand at the command line. Was hoping for a log of all pkg activity since install.
-
If you run it by hand in the console then no, it doesn't log that anywhere as it's output straight to the terminal.
What are you trying to track down?
