The OpenBSD ports tree is always growing. Therefor it is essential
|
1998-01-05 10:13:24 -05:00
|
|
|
that you continue to update your ports dir thru cvs or ftp.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you are interested in creating a new port or contributing please
|
|
|
|
visit
|
|
|
|
http://www.openbsd.org/porting.html
|
|
|
|
If you would like to search for a given port, you can do so easily
|
|
|
|
by saying:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
make search key="<keyword>"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Which will generate a list of all ports matching <keyword>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: This tree can GROW significantly in size during normal usage!
|
|
|
|
The distribution tar files can and do accumulate in /usr/ports/distfiles,
|
|
|
|
and the individual ports will also use up lots of space in their work
|
|
|
|
subdirectories unless you remember to "make clean" after you're done
|
|
|
|
building a given port. /usr/ports/distfiles can also be periodically
|
|
|
|
cleaned without ill-effect, though if you don't have the original
|
|
|
|
distribution tarball(s) for something on CDROM then you will need to pull
|
|
|
|
it all over your network connection again if you ever try to build the
|
|
|
|
associated port.
