What is the logic of a particular software package ending up in the packages installable from sysinstall vs the ports tree? For example, I noticed during the install of 2.2.7 that tcsh is no longer installable from sysinstall's "Packages" option, you must install it using make in the ports tree. Why is that? Is a ports tree install preferred in the case where you can do either? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
