I don't think so. A package is just an archive containing
"truncated subtrees" such as bin/, lib/ or man/ of the
compiled programs, ready for install into the /usr/local

No. The default options are set by the port maintainer, usually
in the port's Makefile.

Hi,
You guys now absolutely, positively have enough information for a PR.
It's still not clear whether it's a device/interrupt layer issue in
FreeBSD, or whether vmware is doing something wrong with how it
implements shared interrupts, or a bit of both..

Maybe putting
Option "DontVTSwitch" "false"
in Section "ServerFlags" or /etc/X11/xorg.conf helps?

Never mix packages and ports. You would have to be using the EXACT
snapshot of ports that the package team used to build the packages for
this to be safe. So conclusion: use one or the other, but never both.
Things you need to be doing now:
1. Install sysutils/bsdadminscripts and run pkg_lib
I had an old version of ports and installed xorg and gnome2-lite using
pkg_add. Then tried to build (make) openoffice-3. The make croaked
with some missing java licensing files which were old.
So... I updated the ports tree via
portsnap fetch
portsnap extract
portsnap update

How do I do that? I suppose the whole ports tree has to go back since
