Just to clarify this, I'm working on a binary package upgrade tool. I'm just in the process of removing the last rough corners before release. Every time the INDEX is broken however, I cannot continue my testing, because it performs all downloads first and only starts updates when all required packages are downloaded. This is not the first time this has happened and I'm wondering, is this a bug in Tinderbox? Shouldn't packages listed in the INDEX always be available? Even if a newer package than the one listed in the INDEX is available, by not being listed in the INDEX it could as well not exist at all, as far as I am concerned. So I think packages should really only be listed in the INDEX if they are available and only deleted AFTER they have been removed from the INDEX. Rant over. Thank you for your time. _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
