Freebsd Install Ports
- The FreshPorts team does not create ports; we just tell you about the latest changes. The FreeBSD Ports team creates, maintains, and upgrades the ports. Who do I talk to about a port? The official mailing list is freebsd-ports@freebsd.org. More information all FreeBSD mailing lists can be obtained from FreeBSD Mailing Lists. How do I get these.
- I'm now using ports to install packages in my Freebsd 7.1-release laptop. However, using ports means compiling software by executing make install clean. This is great since it automatically fetches the dependencies then compile them.
To install the port: cd /usr/ports/net-mgmt/unifi5/ && make install. Change dependency to mongodb36 This fixes package builds on FreeBSD 12 PR: 233482 MFH: 2018Q4.
Sometimes it can not be avoided.MySQL needs to be installed for one reason or another.This post covers installing MySQL on FreeBSD.

Start MySQL from the command line.Note that the above rc.conf line will automatically start MySQL whenthe machine boots.Note that the default location for my.conf is/usr/local/etc/mysql/my.cnf.
Note that if /var/db/mysql exists and is not empty,mysql-server will fail to start the first time.Backup or remove this directory if you need to.See this blog post to track down other errors when startingmysql-server for the first time.
Reset the password.Note that the initial password is stored in $HOME/.mysql_secret.For example, if you use mysql -u root -p
the initial password is stored in/root/.mysql_secret.

I'm very new to FreeBSD/Unix/Linux and just installed a 9.1RC2 system with X. After reading the whole handbook, I'm still quite unsure how I properly uninstall ports I don't need and especially, how I remove their dependencies.
For example..I installed firefox..and I didn't like it. So (before reading the handbook), I typed
and got rid of it.
However, it probably only removed firefox, not the dependencies.
How can I do that? What should I do now to remove the (unused) dependencies of firefox?
I installed cutleaves, but when I use it, it just asks me about every installed port if I want to remove it or not. Isn't there a way to detect, which ports a port depends on and which ports depend on it and offer a method to get rid of all the dependency-ports which are not used by any other port?
Thanks a lot, I would just like to have a clean system.
