I'm a newbie running 6.1 stable and I have what may be several
simple questions: What exactly is happening when I run "make index
&& make readmes" after I upgrade my ports tree? Why aren't the
indexes and readmes made when we run cvsup ports
You don't need to run make index... just cd into /usr/ports and type
Better yet, don't screw with cvsup. "Portsnap" is standard equipment
in 6.x. It's much faster, uses less bandwidth, and is even less load
on the update server. And it does the indexes automatically. Just
"man portsnap" or search the archives.
