I have two questions. First: Assume you have a FreeBSD system installed that has been running for at least a year, with a bunch of graphical desktop and productivity software installed, and have both installed and uninstalled a lot of software over that time. Now imagine that you want to know whether a given utility was something that came with the base system or was installed by some port or package later on. What's the easiest way to do that (preferably without installing the FreeBSD base system on a computer and checking whether the utility is present)?
Second: Where can I get a list of all licenses on all software in the base system? I know there's at least the BSD License, the GPL, and the LGPL, but I'm a little hazy on what else is in there. I'm pretty sure there isn't any proprietary closed source software in there, but I wouldn't bet any substantial amount of money on it at this point, because I haven't really checked into it. -- CCD CopyWrite Chad Perrin [ http://ccd.apotheon.org ] Sen.
