Today I had the pleasure to install some java port and well it was quite frustrating. I still have to download all the distfiles manually. Isn't FreeBSD now officially supported by Sun? Is it really still necessary to manually fetch the distfiles or is this something that could be looked at again?
Theoretically: What if the port would just point to the distfiles and don't actually host them on any FreeBSD mirror. Wouldn't that be legal? I mean a link some site that provides instruction on how to build an atomic bomb is still legal as well, right? If so I could simply upload the distfiles to some russian FTP server and nobody but Sun would really care. This is so annyoing: - Manually fetch - Login to some bloated sun.com site ARGHH!!! </frustration> Sandra _______________________________________________ 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"
