How to find out which ports/dependencies were installed when installing a port?
Hi, New here. I'm running portuprade and wondering if it's possible to find out which ports/dependencies were installed when installing a specific application. For example: I install "A" which needs "B" and "C" to run. So portupgrade installs "B" and "C" along with "A". Later down the road I deinstall "A" and decide I'd like to get rid of the ports/dependencies that "A" needed installed with it. How would I go about finding "B" and "C" just by knowing "A"'s name? There has to be an easy answer, but I can't figure it out. Thanks. -- Robert G. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

In addition to that which others posted in response You could try # cd /usr/ports/ # make pretty-print-run-depends-list - or - # make pretty-print-build-depends-list You can do these *before* you install a port to see what the impact will be. Or at any date afterwards to see what is/was required by the port. -- Regards, Eric ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
