RE: Ports question



As far as I know, after you
make && make install
you should find a complete package of that port in
/usr/ports/packages/`arch`/All
where `arch` is your host architecture (e.g. i386).
With these things you just do a
pkg_add `package_name`
Saves a little space and time to transfer, I think.

Hope that helps,
Jason

Subject: Ports question


Now that I've learned how to use ports, I'd like to be able to move programs
I've "ported" to other machines.  Can I just tar my ports tree, burn it on
CD, untar it on the target machine, and make and/or make install?
