[-- Attachment #1 --] Thank you for your reply, But I am interested in FBSD packages (precompiled binaries) not ports. There is a very small number of packages on the install cdrom, but the documentation says there are packages for each port. Are the packages named the same as the port directory they are suppose to be for? Where can I find a index of packages? Maybe something like pkg_info –r -----Original Message----- From: Patrick O'Reilly [mailto:bsd@perimeter.co.za] Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2002 4:38 PM To: Joe & Fhe Barbish Subject: RE: index of packages available Joe, there are 6000 or so ports. When I'm looking for something I do this: # cd /usr/ports # make search key=imap This example would return all packes which refer to "imap" in the package comments and descriptions. Replace "imap" with whatever you are looking for.
