help out of frustration i deleted /compat/linux!

i was frustrated cause steam didnt work

but now idk how to get it back!
 
Yes, /compat/linux is managed/populated by ports/packages. Just reinstall all linux-c7 ports that are currently installed.
 
Out of sloppy haste last week I deleted my Open Arena port.
I have custom uboot ports slipped into my /ports/sysutils/ directory and would prefer not to delete the whole ports directory. I keep SeaMonkey under /ports/www/ too.

How do I fetch just one port I deleted? Obviously I could extract it from ports.txz for my system.
What is the best way to refresh this port games/openarena or force all my ports to refresh?
I use portsnap auto usually. It meets my shallow needs.
Until this port gets a commit portsnap won't grab it.

What are some ways to do this? I use git-lite for base.
Will a one time git retreival screw up my INDEX for portsnap?
I like using different tools for downloading ports and base
 
I have figured out the correct portsnap syntax. No forward slash proceeding port category name.
portsnap extract games/openarena

This acts as a wildcard grabbing any ports name that begins with openarena

It could be thought as this:
portsnap extract games/openarena*
Code:
/usr/ports/games/openarena-data/
/usr/ports/games/openarena-oax/
/usr/ports/games/openarena-server/
/usr/ports/games/openarena/


Whereas:
portsnap extract games/openarena/
Code:
/usr/ports/games/openarena/
Only extracts /usr/ports/games/openarena/
Note the trailing slash difference.
