Thank you very much. Jim The default pkg repository is the "quarterly" one (see /usr/local/etc/pkg) which only gets new ports every 3 months. You can switch to the "latest" repo, which gets rebuilt every Tuesday, I believe. Or build it from the ports tree which gets updated daily. Cheers, Freddie Typos courtesy of my phone.
