Is there anywhere I can read about the ports system? I was thinking about making a ports system UI... cause pib just dosent work for me...
If there isnt any official place where I can get specific information about it, may you answer a few of my questions?

Where is the regestrys of the system installed packages, of the available packages, and of the dependencys packages on the several packages.
How can I deinstall a port if the port directory isnt in the port tree anymore?

Thanks in advance.

Joao Fernandes
