Hello,
baring this, is there a better tool to use then rpm?
I am a newbie in freebsd with ambitions to become a master :) and up
to now I have installed tons of software using freebsd ports
collection and freebsd packages and I found them better than rpm.
Anyway, FreeBSD can run rpm as well (if rpm is installed of course :)
).

As the subject asks, is there an equivalent? I'm trying to install
linux apache2 on a FreeBSD box, and would like have rpm do as much as
possible as far as getting the dependencies and downloading them ...
Well, when I installed my FreeBSD on my laptop, I was questioned
whether I would like to run a Web Server and I answered yes, so I had
apache2 installed.
You can compile and install httpd from ports collection with the
following command (as root):
cd /usr/ports/apache20
make install clean
Or you can install from a prebuilt binary package with the command
pkg_add -r apache2.
You missed part of the question, but thanks for answering ...
specifically, I'm tryin to install a linux apache2 binary, with all of the
linux dependencies that go along with it :)
