Hi! > Is there any documentation explaining how port man pages are generated > for man.cgi The man.cgi script itself is in the docs svn repo: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/doc/head/en_US.ISO8859-1/htdocs/cgi/man.cgi?revision=54262&view=markup We find that each released version has that version's ports tree. > and how frequently they're updated? Like, are they taken > from binary packages every few months or are they maybe created from the > ports tree that's current at the time of a release (so "FreeBSD > 12.1-RELEASE and Ports" contains man pages based on > https://download.freebsd.org/ftp/releases/amd64/12.1-RELEASE/ports.txz)? Yes, exactly. Any ideas on how man.cgi can be made to also display ports head man pages ? -- pi@opsec.eu +49 171 3101372 Now what ?
