1050: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
1051: if you know nothing about ports
1052: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
1053: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
1054: OpenBSD ports system.
1055: <p>
1.6 schwarze 1056: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
1057: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
1.1 deraadt 1058: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
1059: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make
1060: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
1061: with a command like:
1062:
1063: <blockquote><pre>
1064: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
1065: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_0</b>
1066: </pre></blockquote>
1067:
1068: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
1069: server.]
1070: <p>
1071: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
1072: ports for the 6.0 release will be made available if problems arise.
1073: <p>
1074: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
1075: would like to know more, the mailing list
1076: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
