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 here). 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_/Mp9HSIlIiJNEaTYwh0bB5vE Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEbBAEBAgAGBQJT6Wg1AAoJEHVdJdKpBTc8LaMH9j9S/m2iWuXibEuueG+33mR8 eEjUZ0CFU74GQtcIk6jVz1trgo0FDHQU9n6O7ys88B1W9dpDVSHsOCoj2kvDosDw 4G+FlveMwXwYT6k5U7tNnldmRNGSPKBujS7l5Sf3VDFaMSafDGE0DmxLujuNuJXw VLUea2q6wnwBo/OUhRD7OD4k8LZgt7tC+LjcopomcyKfWDu+V2ousgj6t1BjAqQA F1NwELAsNQ8gXvvr4jtbAXNiv7qqR7zxlgigOACc+Qd6p86BH0H5bPi6MJPHv1sR Tk/+M5Z/ZpFMjpUOqspQVU6jErw20hvmShIajHlQJ0qDvoo7RJLM6lXjPm0f2Q== =Eod2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/Mp9HSIlIiJNEaTYwh0bB5vE--
