Hello, I was wondering if this was possible? I've got a box that i'd like to install the latest gnome 2.14 desktop on, as well as some very intense apps to build. I would like to compile the needed apps on my fastest machine as packages, then transfer all the packages to the slower box, and do a pkg_add * and they're all installed. My catch is i don't want to install everything on my fastest box to pull this off. I am using portupgrade and was wondering if this was doable? Thanks. Dave.
