Hello everyone. I am a former user of Freebsd-7.2 Release who migrated to Debian. I was unable to find an ftp server that had a decent enough list of precompiled packages (including the default at ftp.freebsd.org; for example, when installing gnome2 via precompiled packages, the package manager was unable to find a number of dependencies available in package form. True, I can compile them from source, but this is rather time consuming. Does anyone know of an ftp server dedicated to maintaining a comprehensive list of precompiled packages (a la Debian Testing)? In all other regards, I favor freebsd over Debian or any other linux distribution, and would like to return to using it.
