We expect to add Monero into the ports tree in the near future, which will aid in managing installations using ports or packages.
+### On OpenBSD:
+
+This has been tested on OpenBSD 5.8.
+
+You will need to add a few packages to your system. "pkg_add db cmake gcc gcc-libs miniupnpc gtest doxygen graphviz".
+
+The Boost package has a bug that will prevent librpc.a from building correctly. In order to fix this, you will have to Build boost yourself from scratch. Follow the directions here (under "Building Boost"): https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/build-openbsd.md You will have to add the serialize, datetime, and regex modules when building as they are needed by Monero.
+
+To build: "env CC=egcc CXX=eg++ CPP=ecpp DEVELOPER_LOCAL_TOOLS=1 BOOST_ROOT=/path/to/the/boost/you/built make" (You may optionally build it statically by using the correct target.)
+
## Building Documentation
Monero developer documentation uses Doxygen, and is currently a work-in-progress.
