[TriLUG] OT: hardware question & OpenBSD

[John Matthews]

[snip-o-rama: stuff about OpenBSD and package management]

Thanks, Mike and Chris. I understand a bit more now and am somewhat
intrigued by OpenBSD...

To bring this back to Linux, have you looked at the tool "emerge" that's
part of Gentoo? Gentoo is supposed to be Linux with a ports system, so
I'd think that emerge could be adapted to OpenBSD. Then again, it is
most likely GPL, so perhaps that's a bad idea.

Meanwhile, just wanted to say that this kind of discussion is precisely
what I like about this list. :^) So informative.

Regards,
matt
