    Ports huh? What are the advantages and do they outweigh the disadvantages?

    This is a perennial question in my mind and also in the forums.

    Switching from GhostBSD to FreeBSD - state of ports

    Hi all, A question, a few years ago I moved my Desktop machine from Linux to Ghost BSD. This was not advised by someone, but it looks ok, and I was too fuzzed from medication to take the step to FreeBSD or OpenBSD ( had some 20-year-old experience.... and used other Unix OS's (paid ones ))...

    Solved Adding urban Terror to ports

    Any chance of getting urban Terror added to the ports? I followed Vermaden's post for native Urban Terror and it played perfectly. But it would be nice to have the option to pkg install urbanterror. I have an OpenBSD system now and to my shock its available via pkg_add UrbanTerror. Just a...

    Pkg versus Ports (mixed approach) confusion

    Hi, I have a newbie question related to being careful not to mix the PKG binary approach with the (building from) Ports approach. The handbook warns against using a mix of these two approaches and the likely eventual collision of binaries, but I think I might be reading it too strictly. Does...

    Best way to manage ports?

    I have been running FreeBSD 14-Current for about a month now and have been enjoying it besides the odd crashes here and there. It is not as many crashes as OpenBSD 7.2-Current was giving me however. I am stuck with 14-Current for now because on my Intel 2.5GB Lan and RX 6600 GPU not being...

    Ports versions postfixes

    gnutls-3.7.3_1,1 What do those postfixes mean? I understand the 3.7.3 part but not the "_1" part and the ",1" part. I don't remember them extending to binary packages either.

    Local Full FreeBSD Ports Repo?

    I'd like to host a local replication of the entire FreeBSD Ports trees along with rolling updates which divert things like historical code changes within a repo to separate branches such that if there's a malicious editor of a repo they don't overwrite local copies of code. Is there a simple...
