I hadn't heard of mkhybrid, so investigated: it's been merged into mkisofs:
ports/sysutils/mkisofs/work/mkisofs-1.13/ChangeLog.mkhybrid:
Mon May 1 14:51:00 BST 2000 James Pearson <j.pearson@ge.ucl.ac.uk>
Version 1.13a01
mkhybrid has now been merged with, and is now part of mkisofs
ports/sysutils/mkisofs/work/mkisofs-1.13/mkisofs/README.mkhybrid:
mkhybrid v1.13 has now merged with, and is a part of mkisofs v1.13
Within a 4.2 CVS tree:
ports/sysutils/mkhybrid is just an Attic structure
cvs -R export -r HEAD mkhybrid cannot find module
mkhybrid now features in ports/sysutils/mkisofs/
cvs -R export -r HEAD mkisofs
./pkg-plist:bin/mkhybrid
man mkhybrid is an empty dummy (just a .so)
Executables share same inode:
262201 -r-xr-xr-x 2 root wheel 374564 Feb 22 00:22 /usr/local/bin/mkhybrid
262201 -r-xr-xr-x 2 root wheel 374564 Feb 22 00:22 /usr/local/bin/mkisofs
