If you're concerned about disc space, then I would suggest not to use Oracle, because the size of the ports are not really significant in the total size needed.

You can for example try to remove all X related packages. -- Marcel Moolenaar mailto:marcel@scc.nl SCC Internetworking & Databases http://www.scc.nl/ Amsterdam, The Netherlands tel: +31 20 4200655 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
