I've been using FreeBSD for a long time since Version 4 or perhaps V3. I always assumed that packages and ports were linked automatically and that= any dependency issues were just a bug. I ran across this bug report via a thread Jason started in the ports and packages forum and I found that thread after reading in the beloved handbook that if I wanted to use both ports and packages then I had to ensure they w= ere working from the same branch. I quote: "If the Ports Collection and pkg must be used in conjunction, then be sure = that your Ports Collection and pkg are on the same branch release of the ports tree." In fact it would be a trivial system indeed that did not absolutely require both systems - it is one of the great features of FreeBSD. 9/10 times a package will suffice and using packages for install is far fas= ter than ports so it is compelling to go that way so most of my little server installs indeed use packages now though I started with only ports.=20=20=20 Only a trivial server with limited services would not require some kind of modification to one of the package default compile options. This seems to= be a trend (i.e. the notion of a VM or Container so support a single applicati= on) but there are still little servers like mine that support quite a variety of services like an old mainframe and do it quite well.=20=20=20=20 It would be a shame to have to go back to ports only or to have to manually compile each application outside of a maintained tree. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
