available packages for a given port

From Wolfram Schneider@wosch@freebsd.org to muc.lists.freebsd.ports on Tue Jan 27 08:21:27 2026

From Newsgroup: muc.lists.freebsd.ports

The FreeBSD ports search at

https://ports.freebsd.org

has now a link to the available *.pkg for a given port. E.g if you
search for "curl"
https://ports.freebsd.org/cgi/ports.cgi?query=^curl-

There is a link "Packages" https://ports.freebsd.org/cgi/ports.cgi?stype=pkg&query=ftp/curl

which list the packages for the supported arch and releases/snapshots.

Does it mean currently available as in built packages or packages that
the port shall produce?
