| raw e-mail | index | archive | help
Hello,
For the great majority of programs I've been using the new package
system and am very pleased with it. However, there are times when I
need to compile a port rather than installing a package.
Is there a way of using "pkg info" or "pkg query" to identify which
programs are locally compiled versus those that have been installed?
I've noticed that for some, but not all, installed programs the
following annotation appears:
repo_type : binary
repository : FreeBSD
It may be useful if there were some notation to identify ports that
were locally compiled from the ports tree.
Cheers ... __o
