Hello,

Is there a way to download everything required by a port before starting to
build it and its dependencies (so I can let it to build later without an
internet connection). Thanks in advance.

I have been using (and still use) "portmaster" to update
locally-inistalled ports on a couple machines (one of which is my
laptop).

Quite some time ago, I started running "portmaster -aF" specificially
for this purpose (while rebuilding base FreeBSD), prior to a subsequent
"portmaster -ad" (after the reboot).

Caveat: portmaster is ... rather deprecated of late.  See ports@
archives for further discussion on that topic.  (in fact, Ii'll redirect
this to ports@, as it's a ports issue.)

It is not deprecated. There was a long time without any maintainer, but i took the maintainership some time ago.

And for that, many of us are grateful.  Thanks!
