Does the sysinstall utility > use the same scripts as the ports tree? Sysinstall uses packages, whereas the ports tree does not necessarily. A package is just an archive of everything to be installed for a given program. It is possible that installing a package (with pkg_add) does not give the same results as installing a port via make install. This is a bug. If you can reproduce that for a particular port, you may consider sending a problem report with send-pr(1).
