Re: HOWTO: Keep your ports tree current

Hi, Jason

Just for your information. For the latest ports structure, When you do
#ls /usr/ports/net |grep cvs
You get
cvsup
cvsup-mirror
cvsup-without-gui
cvsync
FreeBSD people said in some article that they removed cvsup-bin.
So for now, you can not install cvsup-bin from ports collection from net.

Regards,Jennifer

If you want binary cvsup install via net,
use pkg_add's -r flag, like:

# pkg_add -r cvsup-without-gui
