Also, I should note that, regarding the original packages with Gnu Make need= s: If you can, you'll definitely want to get the ports versions of the tools= you need, if it all possible. But, the ports collection has Gnu Make for yo= u to use if necessary... pkg install gmake gmake install... etc --Matt On Mar 24, 2014, at 7:42 PM, Matthew Pherigo <hybrid120@gmail.com> wrote: >> On Mar 24, 2014, at 7:17 PM, David Newman <dnewman@networktest.com> wrote= : >>=20 >> However, if I understand that poudriere link, it would still build my >> custom packages from ports, and thus there isn't much time savings.

The point of poudriere is that your poudriere server compiles the package= s with custom options that you want, and then acts as a package repository t= o the rest of your computers. Thereby, you'll only be compiling your package= s once (unless you're dealing with different architectures, which is a whole= other issue). So, if you only have one computer, it won't save you any time= , but the time you save goes up exponentially with how many other computers o= f the same architecture you have. >=20 > --Matt
