What exact replacement do you have in eye for the use case of finding
where in the ports tree a port is (i.e. if one actually wants to use
a port rather than a package)?

Kind regards,

Hannah.

Interesting,  So is /usr/ports/INDEX being dumped too at some point.
Or will it still have listings showing dependancies and stuff?

 Not to be argumentative but ratpoison is still dependant on it [them].
 Seems that should be made apparent in the ports search output somehow eh?

Well, you *are* under /usr/ports/x11...

It could be argued that some output might be desirable here; but on the
other hand, this would lead to lots of people asking on misc@ where this
'x' package can be found...

What is the preffered  make target now?

 I have no part of X installed so should I see some dependancies listed

I guess this means ratpoison is unbelievably lightweight, having
no dependencies (other than X, of course).

So shouldn't `X' appear as a dependancy?  Or whatever package supplies
X?

Assuming I need to backup and get the installation package *x*.tgz.  I'm not
sure how to proceed.

I've installed from a recent snapshot and then built from src to
follow current.  So what is the normal way to backup and get something
basic like X?

X isn't in packages, but in simple tarballs.

cd / ; for i in some/path/x*.tgz; do tar xvvzpf $i; done

Configure if needed, run X.

No.
X is not a package.  It is a file set, not part of the ports tree.

Get the X files from a snapshot, install those as above.
Or, boot an install media, install all file sets.
