Well, yes, I didn't elaborate any further on this one.

Perhaps a better way to run this would be: pkg_info -I $(pkg_info -arq | cut -d ' ' -f 2) >/dev/null So only any errors will actual display. -- Conrad Sabatier <conrads@cox.net> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
