OpenBSD Install BASH Shell Package Command

To install the BASH shell package on an OpenBSD system, you can use the pkg_add command.

The pkg_add command is a utility that installs packages on OpenBSD systems.

To install the BASH shell package, you can use the following command:

pkg_add bash

This will install the BASH shell package on the system.

You can find more information about the pkg_add command and its options in the OpenBSD documentation or by running the pkg_add --help command.

Keep in mind that you will need to be logged in as a user with the necessary privileges to install packages on an OpenBSD system. You may need to use the sudo command or log in as the root user to install the BASH shell package.

You may also need to update the /etc/shells file to include the path to the BASH shell executable. This will allow you to use the chsh command to change the default shell for a user.

For example, to add the BASH shell to the /etc/shells file, you can use the following command:

echo '/usr/local/bin/bash' >> /etc/shells

This will append the path to the BASH shell executable to the /etc/shells file.

You can find more information about configuring the default shell for users on OpenBSD systems in the OpenBSD documentation or by searching online.
