>Description:
I did 'man csup' in hope to find ready-to-use solution for getting csup(1) to work from behind the SOCKS5 proxy.
Manual page is referring to "standard runsocks" command.
I had to Google to learn it's a part of "net/socks5" port.
I tried pkg_add -r socks5
No such a port. After
portsnap fetch
portsnap extract
You can see this port doesn't exist anymore.
We need ready to use solution ("givemewhatevernecessarytomakeproxywork.sh") to get this configuration going quickly.
