Allow me to add: Some ports do not directly install the binaries into $LOCALBASE/bin (/usr/local/bin typically), but instead into /usr/local/<something>/bin and then make a symlink. An example is gprolog: /usr/local/gprolog-1.4.0/bin/pl2wam /usr/local/gprolog-1.4.0/bin/gprolog In your case, it's not that easy because the specified port directory does not contain a package list, and the Makefile includes a different file from lang/ghc which contains some binary locations. That directory also contains a pkg-plist file which has entries such as bin/ghc bin/ghci bin/ghc-pkg bin/runhaskell bin/haddock-ghc-%%GHC_VERSION%% bin/ghci-%%GHC_VERSION%% bin/hsc2hs bin/ghc-pkg-%%GHC_VERSION%% bin/runghc bin/ghc-%%GHC_VERSION%% bin/hp2ps bin/hpc I'm quite confident that this is what you've been searching for. Again, depending on metaporting and dependency construction, the binaries may be recorded in /var/db/pkg as described in my previous message. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
