Port searching tool that supports search by packing list files Was Maintained by:vd@FreeBSD.org Port Added: 01 Feb 2006 15:24:39
Portsearch allows searching for ports that install some file, like
``find /usr/ports -name pkg-plist |xargs grep pattern''
but honoring PLIST_(FILES|DIRS) and %%FOOBAR%% variables.
It also supports searching for ports by name, key (name, comment or
dependencies), path, info (comment), maintainer, category, fetch, extract,
patch, build and run dependencies and www site.

* Upgrade sysutils/portsearch from 1.2.3 to 1.3.0, changes:
o Added new output option: `rawfiles' to request outputting only matched
pfiles one by line
o Changed -b option to be the same as -f '(^|/)file$' instead of -f '/file$'
o Added new option -L to mimic -p path -f '.*' -o rawfiles i.e. show all
pfiles for (usually) one port. Inspired by pkg_info -L pkgname
o Ignore case by default and add -S option to force case sensitivity
* Remove my name from pkg-descr
Update from 1.2.2 to 1.2.3:
* bugfix: do not ignore option for case-insensitivity when searching
for packing list files
* added "-b something" option to simulate -f '/something$', since I got
tired of typing the later
Add new port sysutils/portsearch
Portsearch allows searching for ports that install some file, like
``find /usr/ports -name pkg-plist |xargs grep pattern''
but honoring PLIST_(FILES|DIRS) and %%FOOBAR%% variables.
