Hi, I wanted to install tarsnap today but in the packages I could only find tarsnap-gui (and in the packages for 6.2-beta tarsnapper). The installation fails because they cannot find tarsnap. In the ports though there is tarsnap and after installing that even tarsnap-gui installs for example.
Thus I am wondering now about two questions: 1) What decides which port becomes a packages? I somehow expected that pretty much any port gets packaged. 2) Why are there packages that depend on ports? Niels
