501:
502: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
503: if you know nothing about ports
504: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
505: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
506: OpenBSD ports system.
507: <p>
508: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
509: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
510: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
511: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
512: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
513: with a command like:
514:
515: <blockquote><pre>
516: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>
517: # <b>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_5</b>
518: </pre></blockquote>
519:
520: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
521: server.]
522: <p>
523: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
524: ports for the 6.6 release will be made available if problems arise.
525: <p>
526: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
527: would like to know more, the mailing list
528: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
