These are freebsd package files. DSPAM should already be available so you shouldnt have to do anything but point the manifest at the package. > Can you briefly describe how I should package the DSPAM binaries > etc., so DSPAM can be deployed as a valide pfSense app? > > Additionally please give me some pointers why an app such as > spamd uses both XML files and PHP files for the web interace? > > How do these file semantically differ? The packaging system is not something that can be communicated in one email. The best bet is for you to check out http://pfsense.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/tools/packages/ where all of our packages live. pkg_config.xml is the master manifest and it points to a xml file for each package that we offer.
