Hi,

In FreeBSD Handbook, section 6.4.3 [1] the proposed method to install GQView is
given as

# pkg install gqview

but installation fails, apparently, there is no package called "gqview" in the
repository

root@fbsd:~ # pkg update
Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...
FreeBSD repository is up-to-date.
All repositories are up-to-date.
root@fbsd:~ # pkg install gqview
Updating FreeBSD repository catalogue...
FreeBSD repository is up-to-date.
All repositories are up-to-date.
pkg: No packages available to install matching 'gqview' have been found in the
repositories
root@fbsd:~ # 

The web page should be update accordingly, or the binary should be added into
the repository.
