Installing Trac on FreeBSD

Kuei-Feng Li, Rui Lopes and Pav Lucistnik kindly ​added Trac to the ​FreeBSD ports collection.

For more information:

Having trouble using the ports ?

You may have to use some additional ports from ​freshports. I found these ones useful:

• ​subversion-python
• ​clearsilver-python
• ​clearsilver

Just add them to your /usr/ports tree before using the trac port mentioned above.

As of May 26th, 2004, the above are all installed as dependencies by the port, EXCEPT for plain old clearsilver.
At trac 0.6.1. I had to specify the actual db file and not the directory.

trac-admin /usr/local/trac/htdocs/trac.db initdb

also I had to use initdb not initenv from the docs.
