[oi-dev] how to change local build repo prefix

[Till Wegmueller]

The publisher is set to userland for a specific reason. It makes it easy 
to tell pkg to install the package from the openindiana.org publisher if 
a newer version makes it there. If you change the publisher that 
prevents the you from being able to uninstall all userland publisher 
provided packages at once.

However here are two ways.

1. Set the environment variable PUBLISHER to "openindiana.org" the 
Makefiles respect what is inside this env variable while setting their 
variable.

2. Setup userland as publisher without source `pkg set-publisher 
--non-sticky userland` and then whenever you need to install a package 
you can do `pkg install -g $WS_TOP/i386/repo $PKG`


Hope this helps
