Hi all! I am running freebsd 5.3 RELEASE p5 and have installed several ports, so now I have X, gnome 2.10, firefox, openoffice and several other "goodies" installed. And most of it without a glitch! :-) However, I have a question... (Of course, why else bother the list?? ;-) ) I have installed a couple of "meta" ports, for example gnome2. How can I see exactly which ports the meta port installs? I have tried to figure it out but failed... I am right now installing "gnome2-power-tools" and can see that it installs apache (!) which causes some concern regarding configuration and security. So; what else did it install? How do I find out? Regards, Per Berger Sweden
