Should be noted that OpenBSD has package tools and management much more along the lines of apt or yum. Ports on openbsd build into packages so you dont get a weirdly broken system if you do need to dip into ports for some reason (although the general recommendation is to use binary packages)
- protomyth 11y agoI don't think I've used ports on FreeBSD and have stuck with pkg. PC-BSD has a pretty extensive package management system[1], and and NetBSD's package management is used by multiple operating systems[2]. Ports isn't really used unless you have some pretty specific needs. 1) http://web.pcbsd.org/doc-archive/10.1.2/html/update.html http://web.pcbsd.org/doc-archive/10.1.2/html/update.html 2) http://www.netbsd.org/docs/software/packages.html http://www.netbsd.org/docs/software/packages.html
