    Hi all!

    I am running freebsd 5.3 RELEASE p5 and have installed several ports, so
    now I have X, gnome 2.10, firefox, openoffice and several other
    "goodies" installed. And most of it without a glitch! :-)

    However, I have a question... (Of course, why else bother the list?? ;-)
    )

    I have installed a couple of "meta" ports, for example gnome2. How can I
    see exactly which ports the meta port installs? I have tried to figure
    it out but failed...

    I am right now installing "gnome2-power-tools" and can see that it
    installs apache (!) which causes some concern regarding configuration
    and security. So; what else did it install? How do I find out?

    Regards,
