      I saw that ntopng and bandwidth  are not available in 2.3.

      Can we get a list of which other packages are not available please?

      Thx.

      PS: Just saw that NUT is not available either. That one will be a deal breaker for many…

        LCDProc (and Dev) aren't available. Luckily I don't often look at my Firebox's screen.

          I have provided the packages avaliable in this forum post. Anything not there is not avaliable even now with the RC out (From what I can see).

              Still would be nice to have the official answer/list from the pfsense team itself and the plans/ETA to bring (or not) the missing packages to 2.3.

              Thx.

                          Some things you can do that… other things had customizable settings that would then be backed up with your pfSense configuration, or had widgets or other items integrated. Just doing pkg install doesn't get those added bonuses when used with pfSense.

                            Because the pfSense base and packages are all using pkg from our own custom repository, we can't easily accommodate having package from our repo and the FreeBSD repo concurrently without potential dependency issues. It may work, it may not. We have tossed around the idea of, post-release, letting our package server build a full set so they would all be available from our own package servers, but that will take quite a bit of time/cpu so it would have to wait until we have a stable release first and not using the servers for a steady stream of snapshot builds :-)
