1.1 beck 454: A ports tree archive is also provided. To extract:
455: <blockquote><pre>
1.7 bentley 456: # <kbd>cd /usr</kbd>
457: # <kbd>tar xvfz /tmp/ports.tar.gz</kbd>

1.1 beck 460: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
461: if you know nothing about ports
462: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
463: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
464: OpenBSD ports system.
465: <p>
466: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
467: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
468: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
469: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
470: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
471: with a command like:
472: <blockquote><pre>
1.7 bentley 473: # <kbd>cd /usr/ports</kbd>
474: # <kbd>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_5</kbd>
1.1 beck 475: </pre></blockquote>
1.7 bentley 476: <p>
1.1 beck 477: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
478: server.]
479: <p>
480: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
481: ports for the 6.6 release will be made available if problems arise.
482: <p>
483: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
484: would like to know more, the mailing list
485: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
