Date: Fri, 21 Apr 1995 18:08:01 -0700 Message-ID: <27282.798512881@freefall.cdrom.com> From: "Jordan K. Hubbard" Sender: ports-owner@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk 1. Get the -current copy of pkg_install and install all the utils. 2. Get the -current copy of bsd.port.mk and install that. If you go into any of the ports and install them, they should be registered properly as "pkg_added", with all their COMMENT, REQ, PLIST, etc files installed as if they'd been actually fed to pkg_add as packages. This means, of course, that you can also use pkg_manage (which is looking pretty spiff in -current too!) to delete things you installed as ports. Enjoy, and let me know if you experience any problems. Jordan
