Hi
What's the difference between packages made by these two methods?
Eg I have youtube_dl installed. From within the youtube_dl port directory
# make package-recursive
resulted in
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 8389 29 May 21:14
/usr/ports/packages/All/youtube_dl-2008.04.20.tbz
whereas from within my home directory
% pkg_create -Rb youtube_dl-2008.04.20
resulted in
-rw-r--r-- 1 chrisw chrisw 8281 29 May 21:22 youtube_dl-2008.04.20.tbz
Packages are just 'tarballs with extra stuff'. You can extract the
two tarballs and use `diff -r' to see where they differ :)
Of course you can, thank you. Sometimes fear of magic stops me
seeing obvious things.
