I try to use only portmaster and/or directly with the port using make, etc. It seems like the pkg stuff ends up biting me every so often. I far prefer compiling to packages.
Hopefully my question is simple. I would love to make the pkg stuff disappear and only use the ports tree directly or with portmaster. Somehow I seem to manage to create these problems on most of my ports: ===>>> No ORIGIN in /var/db/pkg/gutenprint-base-5.2.8/+CONTENTS ===>>> No ORIGIN in /var/db/pkg/gutenprint-cups-5.2.8_1/+CONTENTS I have a list of my installed ports so I am tempted to just eliminate ALL the pkg stuff, if possible, and just use ports directly and portmaster. I tried that a few weeks ago and somehow it seems to have come back. This seems similar to the forum at http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=42842 I agree with what rtwingfield says but I don't see a solution. Basically I would love to remove "pkg pkg_" stuff COMPLETELY and just compile the port or use portmaster. Is that even an viable option, today? I am up to date on 9.1 and will upgrade to current 10 shortly after I have my ports back to manual control if it isn't worse.
