Well first clarify that I am not very skilled in OpenBSD or any BSD,
but I can assure you I want to become an expert, and I'm very open
what I recommend, since I want to learn. by going straight to the
point my questions are:
Why do I work so slow ports? if it is true that we must build, but how
Portage (former occupying packaging system, and also everything is
built based on the source) will not be taking so long to compile, is
it because like this in a Linux and Most programs were made for linux,
and has many dependencies resolved?, or is that through the USE
variable, to filter what each needs the system is much faster?,
however it is this last can do in the ports system?, because when
occupying the FreeBSD ports system, I got a kind of menu for each
program you installed is this possible with OpenBSD?
On the update of the ports: I read that the system git is better and
faster than the CVS system is this true?, Is there a version, or you
can convert the ports tree to one based on git?
in case of CVS deal, how do you update the ports tree via CVS?
OpenPorts.se:
How do you hand?, What if I download a program to unzip Here I have to
ensure it is in / usr / ports, or do I need to be more specific in a
place, or do you just unzip anywhere and by doing make install clean
it will do everything automatically?, are the most current ports
should download them from here, or is it better to update the entire
ports tree?
back with the flags variables or style portage (gentoo), is there some
kind of file / etc / make.conf where you can set CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS,
MAKEOPTS, and if you have something equivalent USE FLAGS ?
Another thing: I know I do not pity simultaneous downloads, but
downloads can be left in the packet queue as, for example? Pkg_add
firefox chromium, in this case the packets are automatically
discharged chromium and then firefox, then why In the ports would look
like? Cd / usr / ports / www / chromium make install clean cd
/ usr / ports / www / mozilla-firefox make install clean
PD1: what to update or have the most current ports, it is urgent
because they want to have to wait until the release.
PD2: please understand that I am American and I do not speak English
very well, so everything is translated by google translator, so
forgive me for some fault gramtical
PD3: My release is OpenBSD 4.9/amd64
