Installation using qpk and qpm without the qpr

I have a qpm and a qpk …and want to install it. How do I do this???
Do I have to create a qpr first using the packager utility???
Thanks.

First, make a directory that will become a local repository.
Put the QPK and QPM into that directory.
cd into that directory.
type the following:
packager -r
Answer the questions that packager asks.
Now you have a repository. Point pkg-installer at your
new local repository and your packages will appear.

Whenever you want to add to your repository, put new
QPK/QPM files into it, and type the following:
packager -ruv2
That remakes the repository with your new packages,
without asking you the questions that you already
answered before.

Would tar and gzipping the 2 files into a file with the extension qpr do
it??? I’ll try that out.

Yes and you also can do that by typing:
tar -zcvf the_package_file.qpr *.qpk *.qpm
