Hello, I'm trying to figure out where ports keep their dependency information, and the best way to parse it? On a Linux rpm-based system, I can do the following: Linux RPM | FreeBSD Ports | Task ============================================================= rpm -qa pkg_info List all installed packages rpm -ql <package> pkg_info -L <package> List files in package rpm -qf <file> pkg_which <file> Which package does file belong to? rpm -q --requires <package> ? List dependencies of package rpm -q --whatrequires <package> ? Reverse-dependencies of package If anyone has compiled this, it would help me out. Thanks, Mike -- Michael P.
