Hi Nelis, FreeBSD 5.2 =========== Tks for your advice. # cd /usr/ports/ # make search name=gaim Port: gaim-0.73 Path: /usr/ports/net/gaim ...... But the lastest version is gaim-0.77.tar.gz which has been downloaded to /usr/home/download/ I expect to install "gaim-0.77.tar.gz" Can I perform as follow; # cd /usr/home/download/ # pkg_add gaim-0.77.tar.gz Or installing the package starting from its tarball # cd /usr/home/download/ # tar zxvf gaim-0.77.tar.gz # cd /usr/home/download/gaim-0.77 # ./configure # make # make install Kindly advise.
