Hi list:
I'm trying to install Gnome 2.14.1 on my FreeBSD desktop (specifically
gnome2-lite) via ports. I've browsed the NET and found all software sources
needed to install it:
gnome2-lite-2.14.1
The "meta-port" of the GNOME desktop slimmed down for FreeBSD releases
Long description : Sources : Changes : Download
Maintained by: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]@FreeBSD.org&subject=FreeBSD Port:
gnome2-lite-2.14.1
Also listed in: gnome
Requires: ORBit2-2.14.0, aspell-0.60.4_3, atk-1.11.4, avahi-0.6.9_5, bitstream-vera-1.10_2, cairo-1.0.4, cdrtools-2.01_4, dbus-0.61_3, desktop-file-utils-0.11, djbfft-0.76_2, docbook-sk-4.1.2_3, docbook-xml-4.2_1, docbook-xsl-1.69.1_1, dvd+rw-tools-6.0_2, eel-2.14.1, eog-2.14.1, epiphany-2.14.1, esound-0.2.36_1, evince-0.5.2_2, expat-2.0.0_1, fileroller-2.14.2,1, firefox-1.5.0.3,1, fontconfig-2.3.2_4,1, freetype2-2.1.10_3, gail-1.8.11, gamin-0.1.7_2, gcalctool-5.7.32,2
...the list continues.
So the problem is:
I'm not connected all the time so I can't wait for the Makefile to fetch the
sources for me and opening link by link to see the sources will take me a life.
I'm wondering in which way I can know all the URLs of the sources to download
it with a download manager an port it manually later on the installation
progress.
Might something like:
portupgrade -NFR <pkg_name>
do the trick?
It will install a 'new' port (one not already on the system), fetch
only, and grab dependencies as well.
You say your not connected all the time. But you could run the above
command (or something similar I would think) when connected and it would
grab a distfile and place it in /usr/ports/distfiles for you. If you
don't finish while connected.... just run the command next time you are,
and it will pick up where it left off.
HTH
Thanks in advance...
Cheers / Me.
