Hi, if you are from Brazil then why are you using mirror from USA? BTW if you read FAQ then you will know that it's better to add PKG_PATH to .profile of normal user and use sudo for installation and I have at least two mirrors set in PKG_PATH for situations when some mirror fails (one is ftp and second one is http).
