Hi,

I appologise if this has been submitted multiple times, but I can't
seem to send to the mailing list, i hope this works.

 Is there any difference between pkg_create -Rb or make
package-recursive in the resulting package file?

 I tried a pkg_create -Rb and copied the files to another machine, and
when i installed the package it worked, but the program didn't load
properly
 (xorg + xfce4). It worked on the original machine, but failed on the other one.

 or should i use tinderbox instead to create the packages to
distribute between my machines instead?

 Cheers
