Hi list,

today i decided to give DragonflyBSD another try.
I installed from dfly-1.4.4_REL.iso w/o problems.
I then tried to install bash with

# pkg_add -r bash

and received an error about "-r" being illegal.

However,

http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/~justin/handbook/packages-using.html

suggests using pkg_add -r.

man(1) pkg_add does not mention "-r". To make things more puzzling, it suggests fetching packages from

ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/2.0/i386/All

So, what's the best way to install packages for DragonFly?


Thanks for your help,


Heinrich Rebehn
