Re: [FreeBSD] pkg_add help
Can someone point me in the right direction. I have a package I downloaded from FreeBSD.org thru Konqueor. It ends with .tbz I could not find this package in the ports collection thru stand/sysinstall My two questions are I need to extract this file Where And then how do I install, make install didn't work. Presuming you downloaded the right version for the versin of FreeBSD you are on - .tbz files start in 5., try just putting it in /usr/local/whatever_the_name_is and doing pkg_add whatever_the_name_is.tbz jerry Thanx in advance. Later, Leon A fanatic is one who can't change his mind and won't change the subject.

Re: [FreeBSD] pkg_add help
Hi, Packages and ports are diferent. A package is already compiled aplication and you will use pkg_add - To install pkg_delete - To deinstall pkg_info - To view packages that are instaled. so, you will install it using pkg_add packagename.tbz Can someone point me in the right direction.
