hello, I am new to ghostbsd, sometimes I noticed that there were not always the necessary applications in the repositories, what solutions are available to me? Can I install other repositories? would freebsd be compatible? how to do ?

Hey Pablo,

Welcome to the forums!

Out of curiosity, what applications are you looking for that aren't available?

The GhostBSD repository is a clone of the FreeBSD repo.

If a package is not available on https://www.freshports.org, that means that the port has not been built.

This can be due to several issues:

• The maintainer does not keep up with the latest changes.
• Some dependencies can be broken.
• Some dependencies got updated, and the current port does not support the change
• The build of the packages or a dependency did time out on our side.

It is to be noted that if you need a package always to be available, you should create a ticket to ask for it to be added at https://github.com/ghostbsd/ghostbsd-ci ... l_packages. That way, the Jenkins Job that runs after the build will not pass if it is not built, and I will have to look at why it was not built. It is time-consuming and can delay package updates for weeks, but it is the only way to ensure that users have stable package updates.
