8:04 PM - Using mports

In order to use mports, you must do the following:

checkout the mports from cvs. The CVSROOT is anoncvs@stargazer.midnightbsd.org:/home/cvs
password is anoncvs. Updated checkout information is always available on the midnightbsd website.

Next, you must edit /usr/share/mk/bsd.port.mk and change the PORTSDIR variable to /usr/mports

Finally, go into the directory and build whichever ports you need.

Progress is not as fast as I'd like, but we've had more commits in the last 24 hours than the whole week prior.
