Hello
I have done some searching but not really found my answer. I was
wondering if there is a way to check port version? I cvsup'd my ports
and id like to check version of some ports before I install them...
I know many have the version in the dir like mysql. But for example /
usr/ports/X11/kde3/
I dont know if this is 3.4 or 3.5? I have checked the make file...
But I dont see the version.
Thanks

pkg_info, which is a part of the base system, will parse the package
database (/var/db/pkg) and tell you what you want to know, I believe.
I don't know how well it works for "meta" packages such as kde or
gnome, but it may help you out.
Thanks all. Will check out these suggestions.
Eoghan
