I really like the ports system, but there are times when it would be easier to use a package. Has anyone thought about combining the ports system with packages a bit? Perhaps an option like "make get" that would grab the package and install it for you. I guess I just like the way that ports work and would prefer this as a way of installing packages. Why packages at all? It can be faster... Stuart To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
