Hello everbody. I'm using OpenBSD since version 3.1 (or so) usually for servers and my firewalls. Getting my IBM X40 and I installed OpenBSD 3.9 and started to build the packages I need from /usr/ports. Everything works as expected (means without any problem ;)
But after installing xmms from /usr/ports/audio/xmms/ I discovered that xmms was not able to play MP3 and OGG files. After some hours of searching and looking around I found a package named xmms-mp3-*(and xmms-vorbis) in /usr/ports/packages/i386/all/. So I run pkg_add /usr/ports/packages/i386/all/xmms-mp3-1.2.10p6.tgz. After this pkg_add xmms was able to play MP3 files. All the years I believed that "make install" will do the same as a pkg_add. Now I am real confused ;) Am I missing something? Is this a bug or does it work as expected? Many thanks in advance. Andreas.
