Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

FInally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combinatio for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Contact

This is a pretty big website. Roughly 600,000 pages as of Oct 2007. And 1.8 million as of June 2020.

If you need help with a particular port, please go through the FreeBSD mailing lists.

If you see a problem with the website (incorrect information, errors, etc), please let us know. The best place for that is via a GitHub Issue.

If your needs do not fall into the above categories, you can try email: dan (at) langille.org.
