1.1 beck 462: Go read the <a href="faq/ports/index.html">ports</a> page
463: if you know nothing about ports
464: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
465: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
466: OpenBSD ports system.

469: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
470: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
471: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
472: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
473: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
474: with a command like:
475:
476: <blockquote><pre>
1.7 ! bentley 477: # <kbd>cd /usr/ports</kbd>
! 478: # <kbd>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_6_5</kbd>

1.7 ! bentley 481: <p>
1.1 beck 482: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
483: server.]
1.7 ! bentley 484:
1.1 beck 485: <p>
486: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
487: ports for the 6.6 release will be made available if problems arise.

490: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
491: would like to know more, the mailing list
492: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
