Hi there Marc/ports@,

I have some suggestions for ports/packages that I would find useful.
Perhaps others would too?

- 'make uninstall' for SUBDIRS. The target is unrecognised if you are
in the root of a port with SUBDIRS. Just saves having to change into
each dir and execute "make uninstall".

- 'pkg_add list' - Fetches and displays (like pkginfo) a list of
packages (that optionally match a pattern). Saves opening a web
browser and going to ports.openbsd.nu to look up package names.

- Have pkg_add read the local filesystem if package not found in
PKG_PATH (perhaps do it first? not sure). Saves unsetting PKG_PATH if
the package is on your hard disk.

Keep up the great work.

Best Regards

Edd
