> How can I list all the packages I have installed in a certain category? pkg_info -ao will list all packages including the origin path of the port (the part of the ports tree it was originally installed from), so as a hack you could do something like: pkg_info -ao | grep -B 3 net to list all packages in the 'net' category. With a bit of scripting you could even make it a bit more readable. the -O option is close but a bit awkward: [23:40:45] [EMAIL PROTECTED] /root# pkg_info -O databases/mysql323-client The following installed package(s) has databases/mysql323-client origin: mysql-client-3.23.58 unfortunately it doesn't let you do '-O databases' alone. -- Jez Hancock - System Administrator / PHP Developer http://munk.nu/ http://jez.hancock-family.com/ _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
