... or maybe something in between? Like a hardlink/symlink/something/... that: You type: # pkg 'whatever' ... It is translated to: # pkg 'whatever' -r FreeBSD-ports -r FreeBSD-ports-kmods ... You type: # pkgbase 'whatever' ... It is translated to: # pkg 'whatever' -r FreeBSD-base ... Just another idea. Regards, vermaden
