1.75 tj 1061: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
1.1 deraadt 1062: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
1063: with a command like:
1064:
1065: <blockquote><pre>
1066: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
1067: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_0</b>
1068: </pre></blockquote>
1069:
1070: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
1071: server.]
1072: <p>
1073: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
1074: ports for the 6.0 release will be made available if problems arise.
1075: <p>
1076: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
1077: would like to know more, the mailing list
1078: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
