Hi all, I can't find an answer to this question, so I decided to post here. Since I'm not very good at english let me ask this with an example.
I assume that packages and ports may have different versions of the same software (am I right?) so, for instance, if you install gnome with packages you can have a certain "glib" version (say 1.0), but if you install gnome with ports you can have a more recent "glib" version (say 1.1). Now my question is, am I right on this assumption? If so, may I have those two versions installed at the same time (from a package and a port)? How does software from packages and ports interfere each other? Does software installed from packages live in different directories than software installed from ports? If not, how does FreeBSD select one over the other?
