The simplest way to create a package from FreeBSD's ports is by running make package command. Let's say we want to create a package for nload port. whereis nload /usr/ports/net/nload cd /usr/ports/net/nload make package The source code for nload will be downloaded, it will be compiled and a package will be created. You can find the package in: /usr/ports/packages/All ls /usr/ports/packages/All nload-0.7.4.txz You might notice .txz extension which is specific to FreeBSD's 10.x pkgng package system. For more info on pkgng run: man pkg |
