Type of Package
Binary package
Use as Dependency
Binary packages can be set as runtime or build time dependencies. See Defining your dependencies for more information.
To add core/dejagnu as a dependency, you can add one of the following to your plan file.
Buildtime Dependency
pkg_build_deps=(core/dejagnu)
Runtime dependency
pkg_deps=(core/dejagnu)
Use as Tool
Installation
To install this plan, you should run the following commands to first install, and then link the binaries this plan creates.
hab pkg install core/dejagnu --binlink
will add the following binary to the PATH:
- /bin/runtest
For example:
$ hab pkg install core/dejagnu --binlink

Additional Steps
To use core/dejagnu as a stand alone binary, you must configure the runtime environment otherwise an error like the following will appear:
$ runtest --help
ERROR: runtest.exp does not exist
To solve this, Habitat provides a shortcut hab pkg exec
to configure the environment and run the executable. For example:
$ hab pkg exec core/dejagnu runtest --help
WARNING: Couldn't find the global config file.
USAGE: runtest [options...]
--all, -a Print all test output to screen
--build [triplet] The canonical triplet of the build machine
--debug Set expect debugging ON
--directory name Run only the tests in directory 'name'
...
...
Another configuration option is (1) to include the PATH directories defined in the RUNTIME_ENVIRONMENT file:
$ cat $(hab pkg path core/dejagnu)/RUNTIME_ENVIRONMENT
PATH=/hab/pkgs/core/dejagnu/1.6.2/20200605223758/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/expect/5.45.4/20200306004814/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/coreutils/8.30/20200305231640/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/sed/4.5/20200305230928/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/grep/3.3/20200305232635/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/glibc/2.29/20200305172459/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/tcl/8.6.9/20200306004342/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/acl/2.2.53/20200305230628/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/attr/2.4.48/20200305230504/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/libcap/2.27/20200305230759/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/pcre/8.42/20200305232429/bin
and (2) to append the above to the PATH:
$ PATH=${PATH}:/hab/pkgs/core/dejagnu/1.6.2/20200605223758/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/expect/5.45.4/20200306004814/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/coreutils/8.30/20200305231640/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/sed/4.5/20200305230928/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/grep/3.3/20200305232635/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/glibc/2.29/20200305172459/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/tcl/8.6.9/20200306004342/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/acl/2.2.53/20200305230628/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/attr/2.4.48/20200305230504/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/libcap/2.27/20200305230759/bin:/hab/pkgs/core/pcre/8.42/20200305232429/bin

Using the runtest binary
Assuming the runtime environment has been configured, you can now use the binary as normal:
/bin/runtest --help
or runtest --help
$ runtest --help
