Will it take care of my INDEX-9 file for FreeBSD 9-CURRENT with the following setting I just appended to /etc/portsnap.conf ? # tail -n 1 /etc/portsnap.conf INDEX INDEX-9 DESCRIBE.9 I'm not sure (no irony, really asking), because "portsnap update -I" does not modify /usr/ports/INDEX-9. Maybe DESCRIBE.9 is not distributed on the portsnap servers. -- Olivier Smedts _ ASCII ribbon campaign ( ) e-mail: oliv...@gid0.org - against HTML email & vCards X www: http://www.gid0.org - against proprietary attachments / \ "Il y a seulement 10 sortes de gens dans le monde : ceux qui comprennent le binaire, et ceux qui ne le comprennent pas." _______________________________________________ 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"
