I understand that the RELEASE directory contains only packages that were compiled with a specific version was released. Can you explain the differences between port directories for stable and current? Will I find different packages on /pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-7-current and /pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8-current? What about /pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6-stable ? I can't find this in the handbook, I apologize in case it's there and I missed it. Oren Ok. I think I just figured out that the only difference is that the packages were compiled against a specific version such a 7,8,stable, current etc... So, if a certain package is updated to a new version will it be compiled for all branches except for releases? How often are packages compiled? In a loop, period is a couple of days to a couple of weeks depending on your architecture.
