Get notified when packages are built

A new feature has been added. FreshPorts already tracks package built by the FreeBSD project. This information is displayed on each port page. You can now get an email when FreshPorts notices a new package is available for something on one of your watch lists. However, you must opt into that. Click on Report Subscriptions on the right, and New Package Notification box, and click on Update.

FInally, under Watch Lists, click on ABI Package Subscriptions to select your ABI (e.g. FreeBSD:14:amd64) & package set (latest/quarterly) combinatio for a given watch list. This is what FreshPorts will look for.

Description:
scan_ffs(8) recovers accidential lost or deleted disklabels. This is the life-saver of typos. If you have ever been working too long, and just happened to type 'disklabel -rw da0 floppy', instead of 'diskla- bel -rw fd0 floppy', you know what I am talking about. This little program will take a raw disk device (which you might have to create) that covers the whole disk, and finds all probable UFS/FFS parti- tions on the disk. It has various options to make it go faster, and to print out information to help in the reconstruction of the disklabel. Ported from OpenBSD to FreeBSD 4/5 with support for UFS1 and UFS2.
