First of all, hello. I intended to reply to [1], but since I am new to this mailing list, I found that it would be better to create a new thread (if any of you know how to reply to a mailman message without much trouble, I would appreciate to discover it). I am the author of the post referred in the previous message (Wordpress brought me there). I am liking FreeBSD, and I'll probably migrate soon my current Debian server to it. One of the reasons that I enjoyed FreeBSD is because it is similar to Arch Linux (my current preferred Linux distro) in various ways. Anyways, I just wanted to indicate this [2] link to you. It is a good resource comparing different package manager commands. Right now it does not include FreeBSD's pkg, however I highly encourage you to add one more column to this table, featuring it. There is no problem that pkg is not a Linux thing. Also, I am interested in the direction the original thread could go. As a almost-2,5 years Linux user, I could have discovered FreeBSD before. One of the reasons that I haven't paid much attention to it in the past was just because I didn't know that it had a large community. I thought it was small, not much significant. I'm still confused about the difference between the several BSDs out there (Open, Net, DragonFly, etc) and the relative size of each community, however at least I can see it is significant :) [1]: https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2014-July/051429.h= tml [2]: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman_rosetta Regards, --=20 - Thiago --Sig_/3QdIXzILoLvuLErori9IxlT Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJT6WmTAAoJEHVdJdKpBTc8WLUIAINbcyCXn3NWLHoa6HVMYkPf fW8gGuOiiF/xl5TMGldZwrlzP7ZTApclXccLa+1b7+9YzvIl0TIjJOpVKyXlZAzK sksA5IUjYWkn9X0sZQLbxxXhLxXDEow+umE826+LTPHBn4vJ8o5bvFIXHEG12uJf uaKsLxeI2O7ks5FtXP2SGz+wd6W09z2RUJD8fQukdneXS4KRd7NDY93lRS3R4uHU abwuJtBLZiwRRm4carx0XzmVaE1Pa4kkiUgy+hH6k3Y5QLCpt9+p3qx6tzXFcXq3 f27DOu6bAfc426juGkAmz/eiJhT8sfKKhQBSZZhnyGRqxhUkkyZmjv8Y6d5kWeM= =PFpj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/3QdIXzILoLvuLErori9IxlT--
