Maintaining local ports
I couldn't find anything in the handbook, freebsddiary, or the mailing lists about maintaining your own ports within Ports. I'd like to write ports that would install scripts local to my site such that multiple hosts can cvsup our "local tree" and then be able to install/uninstall using things like 'portupgrade'. These would be ports that only we would be interested in. Gentoo has the portage overlay feature: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=3&chap=5#doc_chap2 Does anyone know how FreeBSD may accomplish this? I've thought about creating my own ports mirror and then including my ports in something like /usr/ports/mysite (or /usr/ports/misc). Has anyone tried this? -- Ian Tegebo ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
