When do you have to check the provenance of 200 tarballs to install X? If you install from an ISO, you can install the ports from there too and you have checksums which are automatically checked, right? So if you do cd /usr/ports/x11-wm/xfce4; make install it will automatically check all of the checksums right?
- lifeisstillgood 13y agoerr, maybe. I don't think I have ever installed x from pkgs on cd. I always download thru ports - the 200 tarballs was what ports does for me (downloads and verifies md5) so if I did not use ports and I did build from source I would manually download and verify. I don't think anyone would ever do that admittedly.
