FreeBSD Package Management

The FreeBSD software does not have Ubuntu Apt-get installed. It is also not the portage of Gentoo. There are three ways of doing this:

• Package
• Ports
• Autonomous source code compilation and installation

Here are the first two types of information.

FreeBSD 6.0 By default is not installed wget, we can be installed in the following two ways.

(1) Package method:

Pkg_add-r wget

In fact, the package is equivalent to the Green Software installation under Win7, others have compiled the software with common compilation options and placed it in a remote location, we just need to download it (a compressed file. tgz) to the local installation, run Pkg_add can.
(2) Ports way:I prefer ports.

Cd/usr/ports/ftp/wgetmake Install clean

It is installed with the source code, so it needs to be compiled, but usually we don't need to configure it ourselves. We just need to go into the/usr/ports/under the software folder we want to install, run make install.

FreeBSD has helped us solve the dependency problem.
