portshaker

[jotawski]

Hi,

I inadvertently install portshaker from this post but later on I can not do a
# make readmes
at /usr/ports tree. I mean I got only ports tree/category but not the detail of the ports themselves.

I did not know the cause behide this.

I want to get rid of portshaker and her company out of my machine and do a make readmes for the whole ports tree again.

# pkg_delete -x portshaker

See pkg_delete(1).

# pkg_delete -x portshaker

See pkg_delete(1).

also, can I safely remove /var/cache/portshaker ? And after that where can I install Tex Live from or it has already been in the ports tree ?

It's not used by anything else, so yes.

And after that where can I install Tex Live from or it has already been in the ports tree ?

Tex Live is just a collection of TeX utilities. I'm sure you'll find most of those utilities in the ports tree.

Many thanks indeed. I afraid that some files depend on portshaker and /var/cache/portshaker so that it can not be easily removed.
