In general: Yes, they might differ.

Me personally, I consider these incidents to be genuine bugs. If more
people would use pre-built packages, more reports would come in and we
could fix this better. Until such time, you can probably share the ports
tree between multiple machines via NFS and run 'make install' on each
computer.

On the other hand, it is rather seldom, that you find such differences
between 'make install' and 'pkg_add'.

Difference between pkg_create and make package

Hi,

Is there any difference between pkg_create -Rb or make package-recursive 
in the resulting package file?


I tried a pkg_create -Rb and copied the files to another machine, and 
when i installed the package it worked, but the program didn't load properly
(xorg + xfce4). It worked on the original machine, but failed on the 
other one.


or should i use tinderbox instead to create the packages to distribute 
between my machines instead?


Cheers
