Though it's theoretically possible, don't use pkg_create on a bunch of files you scattered on the file system to create a package. a) it's hard to do right by hand and b) you'll probably create an incorrect package. What you can do (and this is much easier) is write a port for your application(s), see http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/ and then create a binary package from that port using "make package". (You do not need to submit the port or your source to anyone but you must have it on your computer to create the package). --------------enigEA40B513B3F760FD5A5F50CF Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIvoTRldnAQVacBcgRAlyNAKD3QKPrxu1naA1ChvHMX1K48eErkACgrCwd IxbAZD+fSFmlELU0GmDBgXw= =jhDn -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enigEA40B513B3F760FD5A5F50CF--
